The role

Due to organic growth and expansion we're looking for a Maintenance Technician with electrical bias to join the on-site engineering team at our Plastic Recycling Facility in Telford.

As AO's new Maintenance Technician, you will play a massive part in keeping our plant one of the most efficient and advanced in the UK.

What you'll do

  • Complete the Planned Maintenance inspections and condition reports in line with the site maintenance plan
  • Plan and deliver corrective and reactive work, keeping production downtime to a minimum
  • Complete dynamic risk assessments and adopt a 'clean-as-you-go' approach to keep our plant super safe
  • Keep tabs on any malfunctioning equipment and keep site management in the loop
  • Get hands on with engineering project work and play a part in new installations or refurbishments
  • Log your daily progress in the Computerised Maintenance Management System (CMMS)
  • Call on your engineering expertise in problem-solving workshops
  • Kick off each day with operational review meetings, providing updates on Planned Maintenance compliance, live defects, and ongoing improvement plans

How you'll work

No two days are ever the same at AO Recycling, but here's a taste of what you'll get up to:

  • Work Monday-Friday 6am-2pm, 2pm-10pm rotational shifts

In their own words

About the company & team

Every year, thousands of fridges, washing machines and other large domestic appliances reach the end of their life. At our specialist recycling facilities in Telford, we recover valuable materials from these appliances, reduce waste and help support a more sustainable future.

We're big on appliances and electricals, REALLY big. Washing machines, fridge freezers and TVs? They're our bread and butter. Mobiles, Airwraps and Ring doorbells? Yep, those too. If it plugs in, powers up or makes life easier, AO probably has it.

But we're more than that. For over 25 years, trust has been at the heart of everything we do, helping us become the UK's most trusted electrical retailer. Our customers rate us 4.9 on Trustpilot from nearly one million reviews, with more 5 star ratings than any other UK electrical retailer, because they know they can rely on us. And it's exactly the same for our AOers, too.

We truly believe it's more than just a job. We genuinely care about each other and the impact we have on making our customers' lives easier by helping them brilliantly. Everyone here knows how their role makes a difference, whether that's delivering outstanding service, supporting our recycling operation or helping build a more sustainable future.

Our people are our superpower, so when it comes to finding new AOers, we know it's about more than just a CV. It's about what makes you, YOU
