Who we are:
‘Our purpose is to create a future where the materials we use don’t need to be extracted from the planet.’
At EMR, we give new life to unwanted materials. Every year, we recycle 10 million tonnes of metals and plastics, saving 19 million tonnes of carbon from entering the Earth’s atmosphere, diverting waste from landfill and protecting resources and habitats.
We couldn’t do any of this without our team members. In return for all they do, we do everything we can to create an environment of belonging, value, support and growth.
We’re proud to have achieved Great Place To Work status, but it’s about so much more than a badge. It’s about being recognised by our people for the continuous work we do to do better for them:
‘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.’
