The Role
We are currently recruiting for an experienced Stevedore to join our busy operations team within a large-scale industrial environment in Liverpool.
This position is in our Ag & Trading enterprise, where we connect producers and users of grains and oilseeds around the globe through origination, trading, processing, and distribution. We also offer a range of farmer services and risk management solutions.
This is a hands-on operational role responsible for the safe and efficient discharge of bulk materials from vessels into our onsite storage facilities. The site handles a variety of agricultural products and feedstocks, including materials such as rapeseed and soya meal, with vessels ranging in size from smaller coasters through to Panamax vessels.

- Operate Buhler/Bedeschi ship unloading equipment, Redler conveying systems, and other bulk handling equipment as required.
- Operate a payloader to move and outload bulk animal feedstocks and other materials.
- Support the loading of coasters for export where required.
- Monitor loading and unloading operations and make appropriate adjustments to maintain safe and efficient operations.
- Carry out pre-use equipment checks, inspections, and associated operational documentation.

- Work collaboratively with colleagues to ensure shift and operational requirements are covered.
Reasons to use Rodeo

Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
Shift Pattern & Flexibility
The role operates across three 8-hour shifts:
- 07:00 – 15:00
- 15:00 – 23:00
- 23:00 – 07:00
Due to the nature of vessel operations, flexibility is essential. Vessel arrival times can change at short notice due to shipping schedules, weather, and operational requirements. As a result, there may be occasions where shifts need to be changed or covered at short notice. The team works closely together to accommodate these changes, so we are looking for someone who is comfortable with this level of flexibility and is willing to support colleagues with shift coverage when required.
Minimum Qualifications
We are looking for someone with previous experience working within a bulk loading, port, terminal, biodiesel, agricultural processing, or similar industrial process environment. You will ideally have:
