Cory: Plater/Welder Role
Cory is one of the UK’s leading resource management, recycling, and energy recovery companies. We use the River Thames as a green highway, saving around 100,000 truck movements a year – a vital way of getting traffic off the road and making London safer and less polluted. As a river-based business, we are proud to support the growth of the Thames economy and the wider inland waterways sector.
Role Overview
As a Plater/Welder at Cory, you’ll play a hands-on role in maintaining and repairing the vessels that keep London’s waste moving by river. Working as part of our Ship Repair Services team, you’ll support both in-house operations and third-party customers, helping ensure our fleet of tugs, barges, and containers remains safe, compliant, and reliable.
