International Recycling Manager – sales and purchasing of metal containing spent catalysts and other secondaries involving the oil and gas industries.
London Chemicals & Resources Limited (LCR) based in Westerham, requires an individual to join an expanding team in Westerham, Kent.
An experienced sales purchasing individual to join our team dealing with spent catalysts and other metal containing materials. The role would suit a confident, self-starter with technical sales experience ideally gained from the oil, gas, petrochemical or catalyst areas.

With in-house training, support, and guidance by the management team, the candidate will initially shadow an existing highly experienced manager with a view to taking over his portfolio of clients in the future.
The position requires someone who is UK-based and can commute to the Westerham office regularly. There is a possibility to work partly from home after training is completed and the ability to work independently, which is likely to take one year or more depending on previous experience.
