Juice Recruitment is delighted to be supporting our client in the search for an experienced Assistant Asphalt Plant Manager to join their busy site in Avonmouth.
This is a fantastic opportunity for someone with strong leadership skills and operational know‑how to step into a crucial position within a high-performing production environment. Asphalt experience is beneficial, but if you come from heavy industry, construction, aggregates or manufacturing and bring the right management skillset, we’d love to hear from you.
The Day to Day:
As the Assistant Asphalt Plant Manager, you’ll play a key role in supporting the day‑to‑day running of the plant, ensuring safe, efficient, and continuous operations. You’ll work closely with the Plant Manager to meet production targets, maintain quality standards, and keep everything running smoothly behind the scenes.
You'll be responsible for:
- Overseeing daily production activities and ensuring efficient asphalt output
- Monitoring production schedules, mix quality and compliance with specifications
- Maintaining accurate production and quality documentation
- Supporting planned and reactive maintenance across plant equipment
- Ensuring full compliance with safety procedures, environmental regulations and internal standards
- Building relationships with stakeholders and promoting a collaborative team culture
We would love to see:
- An experienced manager or supervisor within an industrial, construction or production environment
- A confident decision-maker who can remain calm under pressure
- Highly organised with excellent communication and documentation skills
- Comfortable supporting and motivating teams
- Tech-savvy with strong Microsoft Office skills (Word, Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint)
- Ideally qualified to NVQ Level 4 in plant/production/H&S or working towards equivalent experience
- Experience within asphalt production is desirable but not essential! Transferable operational leadership experience is what really matters.
What you'll receive:
- Salary up to £50,000 per annum
- Company car (electric)
- Health cash plan
- Death in service
- 25 days annual leave + bank holiday (option to purchase additional leave)
