Yard Traffic Marshal

Brassington, Derbyshire – DE4 4BZ
£16.08 per hour | Circa £40,000 per annum
48 hours per week | Permanent, Full Time

Are you confident working in a busy industrial environment where safety, communication and keeping operations moving are absolutely critical?

EES Recruitment Solutions are recruiting for a Yard Traffic Marshal to join a well-established industrial operation based near Brassington, Derbyshire.

This is a hands-on, responsible position where you’ll take ownership of the safe and efficient movement of vehicles around a busy operational site. You’ll be working closely with drivers, visitors and operational teams, making sure traffic keeps moving, loading and unloading activities are carried out safely and site procedures are followed at all times.

If you’re switched on, safety-conscious and comfortable taking control in a busy environment, this could be a great opportunity.

What you’ll be doing

As Yard Traffic Marshal, your responsibilities will include:

* Monitoring vehicle and traffic movements throughout the yard
* Directing and controlling vehicles safely around operational areas
* Proactively managing traffic flow and congestion
* Coordinating with drivers during loading and unloading
* Supervising drivers, contractors and visitors while on site
* Ensuring site Health & Safety procedures are followed
* Maintaining safe pedestrian and vehicle routes
* Communicating with operational teams using radios and other communication systems
* Identifying and reporting hazards, incidents, near misses and unsafe conditions
* Maintaining good yard organisation and housekeeping standards
* Supporting investigations where required
* Working closely with Processing, Weighbridge, Quarry and Engineering teams
* Contributing ideas to improve safety and operational efficiency

What we’re looking for

You don’t necessarily need to have worked as a Yard Traffic Marshal before. What’s important is that you’re confident, observant and safety-focused, with the ability to communicate clearly with people at all levels.

You’ll ideally have:

* Experience within a quarry, manufacturing, logistics, construction or industrial environment
* Strong Health & Safety awareness
* Confidence directing drivers and challenging unsafe behaviour when necessary
* Good communication and interpersonal skills
* The ability to remain calm and organised in a busy environment
* A proactive, self-motivated approach
* Good observational skills and attention to detail
* Basic IT skills
* A flexible attitude and willingness to support the wider operation

Experience working within a 24-hour operational environment would be advantageous.

Qualifications such as Banksman Training, IOSH Working Safely or First Aid at Work would also be beneficial, although these are desirable rather than essential.

What’s on offer?

* £16.08 per hour
* 48-hour working week
* Circa £40,000 annual earnings
* Permanent, full-time position
* Career progression opportunities
* Additional holiday and holiday trading options
* Leisure membership scheme
* Medical cover
* Company rewards scheme
* Generous pension
* Death in service benefit
* Company sick pay following qualifying service
* Free on-site parking

Interested?

If you’re looking for a secure, well-paid operational role where you can take real responsibility for keeping a busy site running safely and efficiently, we’d like to hear from you.
