Are you a controls / instrumentation / EC&I technician looking for your next challenge? Biffa have created this new career opportunity that will allow you to work in an exciting and challenging environment that will draw on your extensive technical knowledge and experience.
Help us make a difference as a Senior Controls Technician.
Based in the North of the UK, with nationwide travel required.
A quick look at the role.
As a Senior Controls Technician, you will independently install, repair, troubleshoot and optimise process control systems across multiple processing facilities. You’ll interrogate PLC, SCADA and distributed control platforms, lead complex fault‑finding, and ensure robust system backups and secure remote‑access arrangements. You’ll travel regularly, supporting sites across the country, and will participate in an out‑of‑hours rota.
This role sits at the highest technical tier in the business, equivalent in grade to our engineering managers, while keeping you fully on the tools.
Your core responsibilities.
Our essential requirements.
And here’s why you’ll love it at Biffa.
Changing the way people think about waste.
At Biffa, we love working with waste. Whether we’re turning it into sustainable power, finding new ways to recycle it or simply keeping it off the streets, we believe every day is an opportunity to improve the lives of millions. It’s a view that’s shared by our 11,000+ people around the country, who trust us to provide them with a career that’s always rewarding, often challenging, but never dull. And it’s why we’re the UK’s No. 1 choice for business waste management.
Dedicated to diversity.
Being inclusive is core to our culture at Biffa; we believe different ideas, perspectives and backgrounds are key to developing a creative and effective working environment that represents our communities and generates the best outcomes for colleagues, customers and stakeholders, which is why you’ll find us championing diversity, equity and inclusion at every turn.
We’re here to change the way people think about waste.
Founded in London in 1912, Biffa is a leading UK nationwide integrated waste management business providing collection, treatment, recycling and technologically-driven energy generation services. Through the expertise of our people and investment in technology we promote and deliver sustainable waste management solutions. We provide an essential service to satisfy the business needs of our commercial, industrial and public sector customers throughout the UK, and help them to meet their legal obligations and corporate responsibility commitments. We employ 10,000 people and collect waste from thousands of businesses and millions of households across the UK each day. Our surplus food redistribution partnership with Company Shop Group, and our environmental work with BiffaAward and Waste Aid, also have wider benefits for the UK and beyond. Since 2002 we’ve reduced our carbon emissions by 70 per cent and aim to be net zero by 2050.
