Concrete Batching and Mixing Plant Supervisor

Ipswich

£35,000 - £45,000 + Overtime + Progression

NEOS Engineering are recruiting for a Plant Supervisor to join a well-established and growing organisation operating across East Anglia.

This is a fantastic opportunity for a hands-on, practical Plant Supervisor who enjoys being involved in the day-to-day operation of a busy site rather than sitting behind a desk.

You’ll be responsible for ensuring plant operations run safely, efficiently and effectively, overseeing production, coordinating deliveries, monitoring quality and getting involved with basic maintenance and repairs when required.

The Role:

• Oversee the day-to-day running of plant operations
• Manage concrete and mortar production
• Operate computerised batching systems
• Coordinate with customers, hauliers and internal teams
• Monitor production output, quality and stock levels
• Organise incoming and outgoing deliveries
• Carry out routine plant inspections and preventative maintenance
• Complete basic mechanical repairs and identify potential faults
• Supervise contractors, visitors and site personnel
• Maintain excellent Health & Safety, environmental and housekeeping standards
• Identify operational issues and take ownership of resolving them
• Travel between company sites across East Anglia when required

The Candidate:

We’re looking for somebody with experience within a plant, manufacturing, production, construction materials or heavy industrial environment.

Experience within concrete, mortar, aggregates, quarrying, recycling or heavy plant would be particularly advantageous, although this isn’t essential.

You’ll need to be:

• Practical and mechanically minded
• Comfortable getting hands‑on with machinery
• Safety focused
• Confident working independently
• Organised and able to manage a busy operation
• A strong communicator
• Comfortable using computer-based systems
• Flexible to travel between sites when required

Previous experience as a Plant Supervisor, Plant Operator, Batch Plant Operator, Quarry Supervisor, Production Supervisor, Concrete Plant Supervisor or similar would be highly relevant.

The Package:

• £35,000 - £45,000 basic salary
• Excellent long-term career opportunity
• Established and growing business
• Varied, hands‑on position
• Multi-site responsibility across East Anglia
• Training & development opportunities

If you're somebody who takes ownership, gets stuck in and knows how to keep a plant operation running smoothly, this could be an excellent next step.
