Job description

A Site Supervisor is needed to join EAG Bioenergy, a fast growing renewable energy business acquiring and operating anaerobic digestion and biomethane facilities across the UK and Ireland. Based at the company's anaerobic digestion plant near Shrewsbury, this is an excellent opportunity for someone with experience in waste management, industrial operations, utilities or process environments who enjoys taking ownership of a busy operational site.

Backed by significant long term investment, EAG Bioenergy is expanding its portfolio of renewable energy assets and helping transform organic waste into sustainable green energy. With a strong focus on operational excellence, environmental responsibility and continuous improvement, the business is investing in both its sites and its people as it continues to grow.

Working at the heart of the operation, you'll help ensure the safe, efficient running of the plant, coordinating daily site activities while maintaining high standards of safety, compliance and housekeeping. This is a practical supervisory role rather than a desk based management position, ideal for someone who enjoys being visible on site, making decisions and solving problems as they arise.

You'll oversee the day to day operation of the facility, coordinating feedstock deliveries, liaising with suppliers and contractors, monitoring site activities and ensuring everything runs smoothly. You'll work closely with plant operators, helping to prioritise workloads, maintain operational standards and ensure environmental and health and safety procedures are followed at all times.

You'll also support routine inspections, maintain accurate operational records, coordinate maintenance activities, monitor stock levels and ensure the site remains audit ready. This is a varied role where no two days are quite the same, requiring someone who can stay organised, communicate confidently and keep operations moving efficiently.

Key Requirements: You should be a Site Supervisor, Operations Supervisor, Waste Operations Supervisor, Plant Supervisor or similar with a CV that demonstrates...

• Experience supervising or coordinating operations within waste management, anaerobic digestion, utilities, water treatment, recycling, agriculture or another industrial environment
• A strong understanding of health, safety and environmental compliance
• Confidence coordinating deliveries, contractors and day to day site activities
• Good organisational skills with the ability to prioritise work and respond to operational issues
• Experience maintaining operational records, inspections and compliance documentation
• Strong communication skills with the confidence to work independently and liaise with multiple stakeholders
• A practical, hands on approach with the ability to support operational teams where required

Experience working within anaerobic digestion, wastewater treatment or renewable energy would be advantageous, although candidates from similar process industries will also be considered.

In return, you'll be joining EAG Bioenergy at an exciting stage of its growth, working within one of the UK's fastest growing renewable energy sectors. Expect a competitive salary of £40,000 to £45,000, long term career prospects, and the opportunity to play a key role in the safe and efficient operation of a site that\'s making a real contribution to the UK\'s transition towards sustainable energy.
