Are you passionate about sustainable energy and turning waste into renewable power? Join us as a Shift Operations Technician at our Energy Recovery Facility on the Isle of Man, where we generate clean electricity from residual waste and support a greener, more circular economy.
At SUEZ, we act for what truly matters — for the environment, for society, and for the future. This is the place for people who want to make a real impact, not just watch from the sidelines. Join us and help drive positive change through innovative solutions that build a more resilient and sustainable world.
What you'll be doing
You’ll help keep our Isle of Man energy recovery plant running safely and efficiently:
1. Monitor, control, and optimise plant processes using the Distributed Control System (DCS), quickly identifying and resolving issues.
2. Operate and maintain water tube boilers, including water analysis, chemistry monitoring, and ensuring optimal performance.
3. Perform safe system isolations to protect people, plant, and the environment.
4. Carry out regular checks, fault diagnosis, and support safe, reliable energy generation during normal operations, start-ups, shutdowns, and emergencies.
What we're looking for
5. Experience in energy recovery, waste-to-energy, power plants, or similar industrial processes (essential).
6. Preferred: BOAS Cert IBO and/or IOSH Working Safely qualifications (don’t have them? No problem — we’ll fully support your development from day one!).
7. DCS system operation experience (desired but not essential — full training provided where needed).
This role delivers real-world impact on a greener future, ongoing training and mentorship, a supportive team, and the satisfaction of helping produce reliable low-carbon energy for the Isle of Man.
Who we are
At SUEZ, your career is a journey full of possibilities. With diverse roles across multiple activities and locations, we empower you to shape your own path. Here, you’re encouraged to learn, grow, and take ownership of your development — because when you thrive, we all succeed.
At SUEZ, your work truly matters — driving action and shaping a more resilient, sustainable future.
