Viridor has a redefined purpose, a bold new Vision, and an ambitious, market-leading strategy. We are investing in the future, and we need a talented team with exceptional people, who believe in each other, to help us achieve this.

Join us, as we rise to the challenge and **build a world where nothing goes to waste**

Viridor is at the forefront of waste management and resource recovery in the UK, operating the largest network of Energy Recovery Facilities (ERFs). We play a crucial role in supporting the UK's climate goals by diverting waste from landfills and transforming it into valuable energy resources.

We have an opportunity in Dunbar for a Mechanical Maintenance Apprentice to join our team working 37.5 hours per week, Monday to Friday

**About the role**

Our Engineering Apprenticeship Scheme will take approximately four years to complete whereby you’ll also benefit from vocational training as well as study for a Technical Certificate at a local college provider. During this time, you’ll become qualified to carry out planned preventative maintenance, general maintenance, modifying and testing of equipment, condition-based monitoring, and identifying faults within our systems.

Becoming our Engineering Apprentice will require a commitment to a comprehensive training programme, ‘on-the-job’ training, and the completion of a portfolio of evidence to support an NVQ Diploma (or equivalent). Therefore, we’re looking for someone who has a ‘can-do’ attitude, a flexible and proactive approach to tasks, alongside a keen willingness to learn and the drive to succeed.
