Local Government Reorganisation
The Government has confirmed that local government across Lancashire will be reorganised, with the current 15 councils being replaced by four new unitary councils covering North, South, East and West Lancashire from April 2028.
If you are successful in your application, you will initially join Lancashire County Council. However, as part of the planned transition, your employment will transfer to one of the new unitary councils from April 2028, subject to the implementation of the reorganisation and relevant employment legislation.
Throughout this period, our focus remains on delivering excellent services to our communities. By joining us now, you'll play an important role in shaping the future of local government and helping to build a strong new organisation that will serve residents for years to come.

Role Overview
Lead from the Front and Make a Lasting Difference
Every day, thousands of Lancashire residents rely on our Household Waste Recycling Centres to dispose of their waste safely and responsibly. As a Site Supervisor, you'll play a key role in ensuring those visits are positive, professional, and environmentally beneficial.
This is far more than a supervisory position. It's an opportunity to lead a team, support your local community, and help Lancashire deliver its ambitious recycling and reuse objectives. You'll be the person who sets the standard on site, creating a safe, welcoming environment for residents while supporting and developing the people around you.
Working closely with the Site Manager, you'll help coordinate daily site operations, guide and motivate operatives, and ensure high standards of customer service, health and safety, housekeeping, and environmental compliance are consistently maintained. You'll spend as much time leading by example as you will supervising others, remaining actively involved in the day-to-day running of the facility.
We're looking for someone who enjoys working with people, takes pride in achieving high standards, and can confidently respond to the challenges that come with managing a busy public-facing operation. Whether you're supporting a colleague, engaging with a customer, resolving an operational issue, or helping maximise recycling and reuse, you'll be at the heart of delivering an essential service to Lancashire residents.

- Strong leadership skills and the ability to motivate others.
- Excellent communication and customer service skills.
- A commitment to health, safety, and environmental responsibility.
- The ability to make decisions, solve problems, and work independently.
- A passion for recycling, reuse, and delivering high-quality public services.
- Relevant operational qualifications, or the ability to achieve them within an agreed timeframe.
What We Offer
Enjoy excellent development opportunities, industry-recognised training, varied and rewarding work, and the chance to make a genuine contribution to Lancashire's communities and environmental future as part of a dedicated and valued team.
