FM Conway Plant Supervisor Opportunity

FM Conway is currently seeking a Plant Supervisor to join our Aggregate and Asphalt division and play a key role in launching our brand-new asphalt manufacturing plant in Wellingborough. The Plant Supervisor will perform a multi-skilled role that includes operating the asphalt plant, mobile plant, and weighbridge functions, alongside coordinating shifts and supervising the site. This is a full-time, permanent role.

Be Part of Something New

With over 15 years’ experience producing high-quality asphalt, FM Conway operates seven successful asphalt plants across the South of England and is now expanding into the Midlands with our eighth site in Wellingborough. The successful Plant Supervisor will join a brand-new team and will be crucial to setting up the new plant, helping to establish high standards, site performance, and operational success from the very beginning.

Joining ahead of the plant opening in 2027, you will initially work across our existing Southeast sites, receiving full training and structured induction support to understand our operations and systems.

By the time the new plant opens, you will be fully prepared to supervise from day one and play an important role in establishing a successful new production site.

To learn more about our new plant, please visit Wellingborough - FM Conway.

The Duties of the Plant Supervisor Role Will Include:

  • Supervising and motivating the operational team to achieve excellence and continual improvement in both quality and efficiency
  • Managing stock levels of fuel, constituent, and raw materials
  • Ensuring mixing plans are carried out in an effective and cost-effective manner
  • Carrying out all weighbridge functions, including managing the daily delivery schedule and maintaining effective communication with team members to ensure customer needs are met
  • Reporting critical issues in a timely and accurate manner
  • Generating task-specific risk assessments and safe working practices
  • Controlling and supervising contractors in line with company health, safety, and environmental policies and procedures

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
