Get stuck in but never get stuck – ongoing training and development plans tailored to how you want to progress
Applying to a new job is a big decision – even when the company you’re applying to has been voted a Great Place to Work for four years running and one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Manufacturing, Production and Transportation.
About our opportunity
Operating R&D processing equipment and assisting with material sample characterisation (sorting, counting, weighing, etc.).
Conducting detailed research into new engineering processes and technologies to drive innovation.
Analysing technical documents, drawings, and safety standards to support project development.
Preparing well-structured reports to communicate project progress and findings.
Managing your time effectively and, on occasion, guiding others to ensure projects stay on track.
Traveling to various EMR sites when needed to support broader project efforts.
You’re an enthusiastic engineering student who’s ready to dive into hands-on work with a proactive approach. You’ll ideally be in your 2nd or 3rd year, pursuing a degree in Chemical, Mechanical, or Electrical Engineering, with a 2:1 or higher prediction for your final year.
A "can-do" attitude and the willingness to tackle tasks both big and small.
Strong communication and problem-solving skills, whether working independently or as part of a team.
Experience with Microsoft or Google Office software; a UK driving license is also ideal.
(Bonus) Familiarity with engineering software like CAD, Matlab, or Process Engineering visualisation tools.
The products we’ll all need tomorrow depend on us making the most of today’s end-of-life metals, plastics and other materials.
Take a car at the end of its life - most people just see a…car at the end of its life.
We see steel, aluminium, copper, plastics, rubber, glass, parts, fluids, costs, risks, markets and – most importantly - possibilities.
Now, multiply that by thousands of cars – we recover, reuse and recycle all those valuable materials and put them back to work as low-carbon materials for manufacturing, infrastructure, energy and transport.
And that’s just one thing we recycle. Add buildings, factories, ships, railways and industrial equipment. That’s all our hard work – the gritty, practical, commercial, difficult work our 4,000 global colleagues do every day.
Anything from a can to an aircraft carrier can become anything from a bicycle to a building and, at the same time, we help to avoid 19 million tonnes of carbon and 10 million tonnes of waste to landfill, protecting nature, resources and the next generation’s future.
“The people who work here are from varied backgrounds and have a variety of beliefs, all of which are accepted and respected.”
“I’m encouraged to keep a healthy work-life balance so that I can be performing at my best.”
“I’ve been supported every step of the way in my career progression.”
‘‘EMR offers a fantastic and inclusive environment; collaboration across the whole business, humility and hard work.”
Four years as a certified Great Place To Work is no small feat. Oh, and don’t forget one of the UK’s Best Workplaces in Manufacturing, Production and Transportation. That’s pretty good too.
But we can do better. We’re aiming for a place in the top 60 companies in the UK – not for the accolade but for the improvement. A journey you should probably join us for.
If you want to be part of something bigger than yourself, have a role that really makes a difference and work with likeminded people towards the same purpose, this is the role for you.
