EVERWASTE LTD — CHORLEY RECYCLING PLANT

ENGINEERING PLANT MANAGER

CLAYTON HALL, CHORLEY, LANCASHIRE | PERMANENT, FULL-TIME

BASIC SALARY

£45–55k

45 hrs/week · Mon–Fri + Weekends as Required

SECTOR

Waste & Recycling

ROLE TYPE

Management + Hands-On

Everwaste Ltd operates one of Lancashire's most technically advanced recycling and waste processing facilities at Clayton Hall, Chorley. We are seeking a driven and experienced Engineering Plant Manager to take ownership of all plant engineering activity — from day-to-day maintenance management through to long-term capital planning. This is a senior, hands-on leadership role for an engineer who takes pride in uptime, builds systems that last, and understands that a well-run plant starts with the engineering function.

WHY THIS ROLE MATTERS

Plant availability is everything in high-throughput recycling operations. As Engineering Manager, you will be the key person responsible for ensuring that shredders, balers, conveyors, sorting systems, and processing lines at Clayton Hall are available, reliable, and safe. You will design and own the preventative maintenance programme, establish a rigorous essential parts holding strategy, and lead a team of engineers to deliver against both planned and reactive workloads.

FOCUS AREAS

PREVENTATIVE MAINTENANCE PROGRAMME

› Design and implement a comprehensive PPM schedule across all plant assets

› Develop asset registers with service intervals, wear data, and history logs

› Transition the site from reactive to planned maintenance culture

› Track PPM completion rates and report KPIs to senior management

› Introduce condition monitoring and predictive techniques where viable

› Ensure all maintenance activities comply with PSSR, LOLER, and PUWER

ESSENTIAL PARTS & STORES MANAGEMENT

› Establish and manage an on-site critical spares holding programme

› Define minimum stock levels for high-wear and long-lead-time components

› Build supplier relationships to ensure rapid parts availability

› Implement a structured stores system — location, labelling, and stock control

› Reduce unplanned downtime through proactive parts forecasting

› Manage engineering procurement budget responsibly and efficiently

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

Lead, manage, and develop the on-site engineering team including allocation of planned and reactive work

Service, repair, and oversee maintenance of balers, compactors, shredders, sortation systems, and mobile plant

Welding, fabrication, and heavy machinery repair to an acceptable trade standard

Fault finding and diagnostics across mechanical, electrical, hydraulic, and PLC-controlled systems

Ownership of all conveyors, pumps, motors, gearboxes, and process equipment across the facility

Attend and manage breakdown response, including weekend call-out as required

Produce and present monthly engineering performance reports including downtime analysis and PPM compliance

Assist with equipment installations, plant upgrades, and capital project delivery

Maintain site housekeeping standards and enforce safe systems of work across all engineering activities

Liaise with OEM suppliers, contractors, and equipment manufacturers to optimise plant performance

WHAT WE'RE LOOKING FOR

Proven background in plant or engineering management within recycling, waste processing, quarrying, or heavy manufacturing

Demonstrable experience designing and running preventative maintenance programmes

Strong mechanical background — shredders, balers, compactors, conveyors essential

Competent in electrical fault finding and working with PLC-controlled equipment

Experience managing or overseeing parts stores and critical spares holdings

Welding and fabrication skills to trade standard — coded welder desirable

Leadership capability — ability to motivate, develop, and hold a team accountable

Comfortable with reporting, data analysis, and presenting engineering KPIs

APPLY NOW

Submit your CV and a brief cover note outlining your maintenance management experience to [email protected]

Shortlisted candidates will be invited to visit the Clayton Hall site as part of the selection process.

Pay: £45,000.00-£55,000.00 per year
