EMR's success is down to the people who have helped shape the world-leading recycling company we are today; people with passion, who care about what they do.
Our business thrives on entrepreneurial self-starters who are open-minded and enthusiastic; bright people, who do what they say they will do. We appreciate those who are willing to try new things and learn from their mistakes.
We have a predisposition against organisational politics and prefer straight-talking people who are self-assured and can give and take constructive feedback.
Ultimately, we value people who do the 'right' things – for customers, their colleagues, the community and the business. People who embody the EMR WAY.
Our way is about caring and getting the job done for our customers and suppliers.

We do this with humility and humour
Our success is measured by:
1. We keep people safe and healthy
In the heavy industrial environment in which we operate, health and safety comes first in everything we do. We want to ensure that everyone returns home from work safely. We expect all colleagues to share this personal and collective responsibility to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of our colleagues, customers, suppliers, partners and communities.
2. We are environmentally and socially responsible Our company exists to reduce the need to source virgin metals and plastics by recycling products, buildings and infrastructure when they have come to the end of their useful lives. This has a hugely positive impact on CO2 emissions. But we don’t stop there; we also continually work to minimise our carbon footprint through alternative technologies, energy efficient equipment and renewable energy.

We have built our reputation for being trustworthy and dependable through many years of fulfilling our customers' needs. Our hardworking people demonstrate honesty and integrity, forming strong customer relationships and enhancing our customers' experience. We want our people to continue to be the reason we stay ahead of the competition.
