This role is primarily responsible for serving customers who bring non-ferrous materials onto site to weigh in and sell. You will act as a key point of contact, ensuring materials are assessed accurately, customers are dealt with professionally and transactions are processed efficiently.

When gate trade activity is quieter, you will be expected to support wider non-ferrous yard operations, assisting with sorting, grading and general site duties.

This is a hands-on, customer-facing position requiring strong communication skills, integrity and a solid understanding of non-ferrous materials.

Inspect and assess materials for correct grading
Direct customers safely through the designated trade area

Ensure transactions are handled in line with company procedures
Monitor for contamination or non-conforming materials

Yard & Operational Support:

Assist with sorting and segregating non-ferrous materials
Support stockpile management and grade integrity
Maintain housekeeping standards across the non-ferrous area
Assist supervisors with general operational tasks as required
Report hazards, defects or non-compliant materials

Health, Safety & Compliance

Enforce site PPE requirements for customers and visitors
Maintain vigilance around vehicle and plant movements
Follow site Health & Safety policies and Safe Operating Procedures (SOPs)
Support compliance with environmental permit conditions
Report unsafe behaviour or operational concerns immediately

Skills & Experience

Essential:

Experience within metal recycling or a similar industrial environment
Good knowledge of non-ferrous metal grades (e.g. copper, brass, aluminium)
Strong customer service and communication skills
Confident and professional manner
High level of integrity and attention to detail

Desirable:

Experience in a customer-facing yard or trade counter role
Basic IT skills for recording transactions

Personal Attributes

Approachable and professional
Assertive when challenging non-compliant materials
Safety-conscious
Flexible and willing to support wider yard operations
Reliable and trustworthy

What We Offer

Competitive hourly rate (dependent on experience)
Overtime paid after 40 hours per week
Full PPE provided
Opportunity to join a newly established and growing site
Ongoing training and development opportunities

If you have strong non-ferrous knowledge, enjoy working with customers and are ready to support a busy operational yard, we would like to hear from you.
