The Vacancy

We are currently looking for an enthusiastic individual to join our team in the position of Trainee Brick and Concrete Product Tester.

This is primarily in a physical test environment here at our Measham laboratory, but this is not a “white coat lab”, as we test products and materials that are used to build the homes and commercial properties around the UK.

The expectation is that following a probationary period the role would evolve as the successful candidate developed more experience.

The role requires the application of routine test methods to set standards and procedures such as: measuring the dimensions and weighing sets of clay bricks; testing bricks and concrete products for compressive strength; ensuring work areas and equipment are kept clean after testing; and working at all times in a safe manner following our health & safety procedures.

No previous experience is necessary; however, the successful applicant must have the ability to work as part of a team, undertake all tests accurately and consistently and have a practical approach in dealing with testing raw materials such as clay and aggregates.

This position reports to the Clay Services Manager and will support the Technologist.

Your duties would include but not limited to the following;

• Obtaining samples for testing from the factory.
• Measuring products for dimensional accuracy.
• Weighing products to verify density.
• Testing the physical strength of products.
• Tests on clays and aggregates such as sieving for grading.
• Updating spreadsheets with data.
• General housekeeping duties to maintain clean & tidy work areas.
  
  

About you;

• Ability to prioritise and work to tight deadlines.
• Effective communication skills, both verbal and written including the ability to converse fluently in English.
• Must have a good level of numeracy, be computer literate and have a methodical approach to data collection.
• Must have the ability to work as part of a small team, but also under their own initiative.
• Regular manual handling of products and raw materials is required as part of this role.
  
  

What we can offer you;

• Competitive Salary and Benefits package
• Life Assurance and Company Pension Scheme up to 10% employer contribution
• Generous holiday allowance
• Gym benefit and Cycle 2 Work Scheme
• Access to Employee Assistance Programme for self and family members
• Employee Referral Scheme
• Service Awards
• Sharesave Scheme eligibility
• Holiday Exchange Scheme
• Financial Wellbeing Program
• Personal development and opportunities for progression
• Company Annual Bonus Scheme
