Full job description

The Role

We are looking for an experienced Waste Transfer Station Manager to lead a team of approximately 10 employees, including Waste Transfer Station operatives and HGV/van drivers.

This is a highly visible, hands-on leadership position requiring a strong presence on-site. You will be responsible for ensuring operational procedures are consistently followed, safety standards are maintained, and site activities are carried out in line with environmental and regulatory requirements.

While responsibility for statutory permits, transport compliance, and dangerous goods legislation remains with designated specialists, you will play a critical role in ensuring these requirements are effectively implemented by the operational team on a day-to-day basis.

As the operational lead for the site, you will also act as a key point of contact for the Environment Agency, supporting inspections, responding to routine enquiries, facilitating site visits, and ensuring that permit requirements, recommendations, and compliance actions are effectively communicated and implemented across the operation.

You will also oversee transport coordination, ensuring efficient routing, effective driver support, and smooth daily operations.

Key Responsibilities

Team Leadership

Lead, motivate, and develop a team of transfer station operatives and drivers.
Promote a culture of accountability, professionalism, and continuous improvement.
Address poor practices and implement clear performance expectations.
Provide coaching, support, and ongoing training where required.

Site Compliance & Health and Safety

Ensure operations comply with Environment Agency permit conditions.
Promote and enforce site health, safety, and environmental procedures.
Conduct regular site inspections and identify opportunities for improvement.
Support incident investigations and corrective actions when required.

Environment Agency Liaison

Act as the primary operational contact for the Environment Agency.
Support and coordinate Environment Agency inspections and site visits.
Ensure permit requirements, recommendations, and compliance actions are implemented and maintained.
Maintain accurate records and assist with the preparation of information requested by regulatory bodies.
Promote a positive and professional relationship with regulators and demonstrate the site's commitment to environmental compliance.
Ensure the site remains inspection-ready at all times.

Transport Coordination

Plan and coordinate daily vehicle schedules and routes.
Act as the main point of contact for operational driver queries.
Monitor vehicle movements and support efficient service delivery.
Ensure safe loading, unloading, and waste handling practices.

Operational Management

Oversee waste acceptance and inspection processes.
Verify consignment notes, duty of care documentation, and associated records.
Ensure correct waste segregation, storage, and movement.
Monitor productivity, housekeeping, and overall yard efficiency.

What We're Looking For

Essential

Proven experience leading teams within an industrial, logistics, waste, manufacturing, warehousing, or transport environment.
Strong people management skills with the ability to challenge and improve behaviours where necessary.
Demonstrable experience enforcing compliance, health & safety, or operational procedures.
Experience coordinating drivers, transport schedules, or yard operations.
Excellent communication and organisational skills.
Strong problem-solving ability and a proactive approach.

Desirable

Experience within waste management, hazardous waste, chemical handling, or related industries.
IOSH Managing Safely (or equivalent).
Knowledge of hazardous waste regulations, ADR requirements, environmental permitting, or waste site operations.
Previous experience liaising with the Environment Agency, Health & Safety Executive (HSE), local authorities, or other regulatory bodies.
Confidence in supporting audits, inspections, and compliance reviews.
Experience improving operational standards and embedding a positive safety culture.

Working Hours-

Monday to Friday – 8am-5pm

Why Join Us?

This is an excellent opportunity for a strong operational leader who enjoys making a tangible difference. You'll have the autonomy to improve standards, develop people, strengthen regulatory compliance, manage relationships with the Environment Agency, and influence the future success of a key hazardous waste facility.

If you thrive in a hands-on environment and have the leadership skills to drive compliance, safety, and operational excellence, we'd love to hear from you.
