Full job description

Trainee Environmental Technician (Chemist)

Location: Regional / Field-Based (Reporting to regional depot)

Salary: £26,088

Enitial (proudly part of the HSL Compliance Group) is the UK’s leading provider of independent field monitoring, sampling, and environmental services. Acting as the vital "boots on the ground" and the public face of our business, we provide a cross-functional service across water utilities, construction, and environmental compliance. If you want a role that gets you away from a static lab bench, out into the field, and offers a company vehicle from day one, this is the perfect career launchpad.

What You’ll Be Doing

This is a unique field-based role that perfectly bridges the gap between environmental chemistry and practical, outdoor field operations. You will split your time across our core service areas of Water, Construction, and Compliance, working flexibly and often autonomously to ensure data integrity remains flawless.

You will be responsible for testing incoming industrial and domestic waste streams directly at treatment works, collecting vital environmental compliance samples, and maintaining complex monitoring infrastructure out in the field.

Perform the official receipt of tankered trade and domestic waste loads, conducting rapid, simple laboratory chemical analysis on physical samples prior to accepting them at sewage treatment works.
Conduct routine environmental sampling and monitoring across Water, Construction, and Compliance sites in strict accordance with QA protocols and client contract specifications.
Carry out routine operational checks, calibrations, and preventative maintenance on environmental control systems and monitoring infrastructure.
Capture and manage data with high precision, reporting findings back to Data Analysts in a timely and accurate format to ensure zero data gaps.
Liaise directly with commercial laboratories and couriers to ensure that samples captured in the field remain fully compliant and untainted during transport.
Keep safety at the absolute forefront of your field operations. Meticulously utilise the "Stay Safe" remote working application and proactively report any near misses or accidents immediately.
Assist with the on-site training and shadowing of new employees, providing a friendly, engaging, and inspiring onboarding experience.

What We’re Looking For

A genuine love for working outdoors in all weathers. This is not a standard office or indoor lab job.
A highly reliable individual capable of managing their own daily hours, working flexibly, and problem-solving independently on site.
Strong interpersonal skills to build trust with on-site clients, waste hauliers, and internal data teams.
Ability to adapt to a combination of shift work (ranging between 7am and 7pm), with the flexibility to work occasional weekends and overnight stays when required by the project.
Full UK Driving Licence (Absolute Essential)
BSc Degree in Environmental Science, Environmental Chemistry, or a closely related scientific discipline (Highly Desirable)
Foundational working knowledge of the water/waste industry or prior experience in environmental field monitoring is advantageous, however, full training will be provided.

About Us

HSL Compliance is one of the UK’s leading compliance specialists, helping organisations keep people safe. We work with local authorities, housing associations and businesses across the UK, providing essential services including water safety, fire safety and wider compliance solutions.

Our success is built on the dedication of our people, and we’re proud to offer a supportive workplace where employees can grow, develop and make a real impact.
