Full job description

Night Shift Plant Operator – Anaerobic Digestion

At ENGIE, we are committed to accelerating the energy transition and building a sustainable future. Our Anaerobic Digestion plants play a vital role in generating renewable energy from organic waste, contributing directly to a cleaner world.

We are looking for a dedicated Night Shift Plant Operator to join our team at Gorst, near Exeter. In this role, you will keep our AD plant running safely and efficiently through the night. Your vigilance and expertise will ensure uninterrupted operations that power communities with green energy.

Summary of what you will do

Operate and monitor the Anaerobic Digestion plant independently during night shifts (6pm to 6am), ensuring safe and efficient performance.
Monitor and respond to the SCADA system, identifying and rectifying operational issues promptly.
Liaise with on-call Plant Operators, the Site Manager, and the maintenance team to resolve problems with minimum disruption.
Carry out minor mechanical maintenance repairs and log all maintenance activities accurately.
Operate the weighbridge and manage incoming deliveries during night hours.
Record all operational and maintenance events on the company database, ensuring clear and accurate handovers to day staff.
Prepare routine performance reports and interpret data to maximise plant output.

What you will bring to the role

Previous experience working on a similar operational or industrial site, with broad maintenance knowledge.
Understanding of SCADA or similar plant monitoring and control systems.
Excellent IT skills with strong numerical, analytical, and diagnostic abilities.
Solid understanding of health and safety regulations, environmental compliance, and their impact on plant operations.
Proven ability to problem-solve and make decisions quickly under pressure.
A full UK driving licence is essential due to the rural plant location.
Experience of lone working and night shifts is desirable, along with the ability to operate plant machinery such as telehandlers, tractors, or forklifts (training provided).

Location

This role is based on site at our Anaerobic Digestion plant in Gorst, near Exeter. This is a fully on-site position involving lone working during night shifts. The shift pattern is 48 hours per week, including weekends, as agreed with the Site Manager.

What We Offer

A competitive salary with clear career progression opportunities within ENGIE's growing renewable energy operations.
A diverse and stimulating role where no two nights are the same, combining technical monitoring, maintenance, and problem-solving.
Full training on the weighbridge, SCADA systems, and plant machinery to support your development.
A friendly and supportive team environment with strong communication between night and day staff.
Flexibility within a structured shift pattern, with holiday cover arrangements planned collaboratively.
The opportunity to contribute directly to the UK's renewable energy goals as part of a global energy leader.

Our Commitment

At ENGIE, every talent has a role to play in accelerating the energy transition. Make a difference and enjoy a fulfilling professional experience. Take on exciting challenges and build a career path that reflects who you are. Join us and be part of the adventure of the century!
