Original job description
Who We Are
Emterra Group is a leader in providing integrated recycling resource management and waste disposal solutions to the industrial, commercial, and institutional (ICI) sectors and municipalities throughout Canada. Our view of waste management means maximizing recycling and waste diversion. Whether you see it as garbage, waste, trash, rubbish, or junk, we see waste another way – as a resource to be collected and recycled into new, usable products. From tire recycling to liquid waste – we turn waste into resources.
The Plant Supervisor’s primary responsibilities include the afternoon leadership, management and coordination of plant operations including production, logistics and maintenance while ensuring compliance with all labour, safety, environmental and corporate policies, and regulations. This position plays an integral part in plant operations, special projects, and has profit and loss (P&L) responsibility for developing and achieving budgetary and production targets. The Plant Supervisor is responsible for the direct supervision of full-time employees, most of which are general labourers, equipment (i.e., skid street, forklift, loader) operators and maintenance employees.
This hands-on role will oversee the afternoon shift working Monday to Friday from 2:30pm to 11:00pm.
What will you do?
Emterra Group is committed to maintaining an equitable, fair, and diverse environment. Any applicants who have a disability or require reasonable accommodation may speak directly with our dedicated Talent Acquisition and Recruitment Specialists. Reasonable accommodations will be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
Please note that AI may be used to support the application review process; however, all applications are reviewed by our Human Resources Team.
This posting is for an immediate vacancy, and we are actively hiring for this position.
