  • Plan, manage and host site visits, open days and tours, ensuring activities are safe, engaging, and well-coordinated, including the creation of supporting materials.
  • Act as the first point of contact for community enquiries and complaints, ensuring timely and professional responses, and maintaining accurate communications channels, including the website.
  • Represent the service at stakeholder meetings and lead external communications to strengthen the profile and reputation of the site within the local community.

Our essential requirements

  • Previous employment experience in a relevant industrial or commercial environment.
  • Good understanding of environmental issues and waste management practices.
  • Knowledge of relevant environmental legislation and compliance requirements.
  • Experience and understanding of social media platforms and their use for communication and engagement purposes.
  • Willingness to undergo a CRB (DBS) disclosure check and undertake some evening working.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
