What you'll do
You will be a key member of frontline Bioresources South Operations based at Poole but will also support our operations at Bournemouth.
Every day is different; you will be working in all weather conditions carrying out a range of tasks to ensure the essential functions of our Bioresources treatment centres.

We are looking for people who demonstrate a positive outlook and behaviours, that can work under their own initiative, both unsupervised and within a team environment. We are looking for problem solvers, and people who are keen to make a positive impact by looking for ways to help us work more efficiently and effectively.
You will need to have a flexible approach, with the ability to react quickly and efficiently to changes on any given day or over the course of the job role. If this sounds like you then we'd love to hear from you!
