Conduct periodic reviews of service costs (haulage, tonnage, and rental fees), challenging variances, and ensuring adherence to departmental budgets.
Yard Logistics, Compliance & Safety
Monitor and coordinate the movement of waste within the yard ensuring waste streams are separated into clear processing areas.
Maintain a proactive safety culture. Conduct regular walkarounds to identify hazards, manage near-miss reporting, and ensure all MHE (Material Handling Equipment) practices adhere to company safety standards.
Ensure yard standards extend to the cleanliness of all areas around the site to eliminate potential environmental hazards .

Continuous Improvement

Stay updated on industry best practices for waste management and recycling to enhance site productivity and compliance.
Work closely with warehouse and logistics teams to propose and implement initiatives that reduce operational costs and enhance site safety.
