Job Overview

Victorian Sliders, the UK’s largest PVCu manufacturer of sliding sash windows, is seeking a Recycling Technician to join our recycling facility and support the efficient day-to-day running of our plant. The successful candidate will come from a similar industrial or recycling environment and be a confident, skilled operator of plant machinery. You will be responsible for operating and monitoring machinery and equipment involved in the processing and recycling of upvc materials. This includes granulating, colour sorting & pulverizing along with ensuring the quality control of the final product.

We strictly segregate white offcuts from our PVC-U extrusion line. These offcuts are inspected prior to being fed into our state of the art granulator, which grinds the PVC-U into 2-5mm granules. Following this the granules go through a dust extractor and pass by a high power permanent magnet to ensure the finished product contains no metallic particles.

In addition to our own extrusion offcuts, we recycle our partners windows. This involves ensuring all material types are segregated to prevent contamination. We remove any old furniture, hardware, reinforcing and glass, from the pre used windows. Once the product has been granulated it is then used for the thermal reinforcing for our sash windows.

Responsibilities

Operate recycling machinery such as granulators, density table, colour sorter and pulveriser.
Monitor equipment performance and adjust settings to maintain optimal processing conditions.
Perform routine checks and preventive maintenance to ensure equipment is functioning properly.
Sort and prepare uPVC materials for processing, including removing contaminants.
Conduct quality control checks to ensure processed uPVC meets required specifications
Ensure work area is clean and adheres to health and safety regulations
Report equipment malfunctions or safety concerns to the supervisor.
Always follow company procedures and safety guidelines.
Ability to operate heavy machinery safely and efficiently
Strong attention to detail and ability to identify different recyclable materials
Basic mechanical knowledge for troubleshooting equipment issues
Good communication and teamwork skills
Ability to work in a fast-paced, physically demanding environment

Essential:

Previous experience in a recycling, waste management, or production environment is required.
Strong understanding of recycling machinery and processes, especially within PVC or plastics recycling.
Time management and prioritisation
Attention to detail and quality standards
Experience operating recycling machinery, including granulators, density tables, colour sorters, and pulverisers.
Experienced in the safe operation of Manitou equipment and a range of recycling processing machinery.

Desirable:
