At EMR, we’re not patting ourselves on the back for being able to recycle, reuse and repurpose most materials within every vehicle – we’re obsessed with getting to 100%. If you’re happiest with your head under a bonnet, your mechanical mind might be just what we need to make sure none of these precious materials go to waste and we can leave a legacy that will be felt for generations to come.

As an ELV Operative, you’ll become an expert in transforming every part of a car into something more valuable – not simply deconstructing, but also looking for opportunities to save the most possible carbon through reuse and repurposing as well as recycling. If you’re looking for a role with endless opportunities for learning and development – you’ve found it. From gaining your FLT license and operating cutting-edge tools and machinery to depollution, health assessments and so much more, this is a position that’s solving tomorrow’s challenges, so it’s only right that you’re trained up in futureproof skills.

As well as getting your hands dirty recovering vital materials, you’ll be exercising your social muscles – meeting, greeting and helping customers who are bringing their old bangers and write-offs in for responsible recycling.

We don’t believe in shutting doors on potential, so we don’t ask for qualifications or experience. We can teach you everything you need to know. What we can’t teach is:

• The drive to continuously learn and the competitive spirit that will see you and your team topping the EMR ELV leader board every month
• A desire to provide incredible customer service
• Smiling through all weather conditions
• Getting stuck into hands-on processes, organised production and outside-the-box problem solving
• Mechanical and mathematical competence

If you have these qualities, you’re already well on your way to being an incredible ELV Operative. We’ll happily fill in the gaps by developing your knowledge, skills and expertise on the job. And we won’t stop training you once you’ve reached peak Operative status, because when you work for a global leader in sustainable materials, there is no limit to your career progression.

Our purpose is to create a future where the materials we use don’t need to be extracted from the planet. At EMR, we give new life to unwanted materials. Every year, we recycle 10 million tonnes of metals and plastics, saving 19 million tonnes of carbon from entering the Earth’s atmosphere, diverting waste from landfill and protecting resources and habitats.

We couldn’t do any of this without our team members. In return for all they do, we do everything we can to create an environment of belonging, value, support and growth. We’re proud to have achieved Great Place To Work status, but it’s about so much more than a badge. It’s about being recognised by our people for the continuous work we do to do better for them.
