Job Introduction

Materials Testing Technician - Dolyhir (Near Presteigne, Herefordshire)

Do you enjoy hands‑on, practical work rather than a desk‑based laboratory role? Would you like the opportunity to make a real difference and develop your career? Are you detail‑driven, safety‑conscious and confident working both independently and as part of a small site team? If so, this could be the role for you!

Location

Based at Dolyhir / Strinds Quarry, near Presteigne (Herefordshire), this role will also cover our sister site in Presteigne as well as sites in Newport and Leominster. It is easily accessible from Kington, Hereford, Hay‑on‑Wye, Leominster, Builth Wells, Llandrindod Wells and Ludlow.

The Role

We’re looking for a Materials Testing Technician to join our welcoming and supportive team at our Dolyhir and other sites in the area. This is a vital operational role, directly supporting quarries and asphalt plants by ensuring materials meet required quality and safety standards.

Reporting to the Senior Technician, you’ll carry out daily sampling and testing of construction materials, primarily aggregates and asphalt. Accuracy, consistency and a strong commitment to health and safety are essential.

This is not a traditional “lab coat” role – it’s a practical, site‑based position where you’ll play a key part in keeping operations running smoothly.

Key Responsibilities

Daily sampling and testing of aggregates and asphalt materials with a high level of accuracy
Carrying out testing safely, in line with manual handling capabilities and Health and Safety procedures
Conducting the majority of testing within a laboratory environment using ovens, furnaces, sieves, weighing equipment and other scientific apparatus
Monitoring and reporting on material quality for both internal and external customers
Maintaining strict adherence to Company Health and Safety standards at all times
Occasional sampling and testing at other regional sites when required

About You

This role would suit someone who is hard working, proactive and adept at recognising issues and problem solving. We welcome applications from experienced technicians however if you don’t have experience but are keen to develop the appropriate skills then full training can be provided.

You Will Have

Laboratory or materials testing experience within construction, aggregates or asphalt (advantageous but not essential)
A strong work ethic and self‑motivation
Excellent attention to detail and accuracy
Good communication skills, with the confidence to liaise across different teams and seniority levels
The ability to work independently while contributing effectively to a wider team
IT literacy and a good numerical aptitude (calculations and data interpretation)
Flexibility in your working approach
A strong awareness of Health and Safety
Driving licence essential

Why Tarmac

We don't just offer a job, we offer a career.

Alongside this role, you'll have access to industry-leading rewards, development opportunities, and a culture that puts people first, including:

Bonus scheme
Enhanced holiday entitlement
Contributory pension scheme
Access to the Tarmac Reward website with discounts on retailers, holidays, etc.
Access to our Employee Assistance helpline for free and confidential advice
Access to join our Employee Communities (employee networks) we currently have nine communities inc. (REACH) Religious, Ethnic, Cultural Heritage, LGBTQ+, Parents & carers, Ability, Wellbeing, Female voice and menopause
Training and development opportunities
