The right individual does not have to been from a quality control background. In fact, we are also open to considering hands on practical sales people, that want a change. Operational people that are commercially focused and happy to do some sales. People from a QC background would have to have the right personality and attitude to fit into a commercial team, and not be technically focussed. A mix of credibility, practicality and some commercial acumen ideal. xjnqpsq
Waste & Recycling Sector experience would be advantageous, but willingness to work up close to waste material essential.
Any relevant qualifications welcome which may include ISO 9001 auditor, IOSH, COTC, WAMITAB, IEMA, NEBOSH
