Join a Team That Delivers Excellence Every Day
We’re looking for a reliable, hands-on person to join our busy material processing depot in Wellingborough. If you enjoy practical work, being part of a team, and want to work for a company that values its people, this could be the job for you.
Day Group is a family-owned business with over 75 years in construction and recycling. We’re known for our personal approach, dependability, and innovative solutions. With 25+ locations and nearly 700 people, we offer stability and real opportunities to grow.
Our new Wellingborough facility is a £20 million investment in the Midlands. Here, we recycle Incinerator Bottom Ash (IBA) from energy recovery plants and turn it into Ecoblend®, a range of sustainable aggregates used in construction. By recycling waste that would otherwise go to landfill, we help protect natural resources and promote responsible construction.
As a Depot Operative, you’ll play a key role in keeping the site running smoothly. This is a hands-on role where you’ll work as part of a team in a busy environment.

About You
- Physically fit and happy to work in an active role
- A positive, “can-do” attitude
- Reliable and able to work well with others
This role is based on-site at Ogee Business Park in Wellingborough, Northamptonshire. You’ll need to live within a reasonable commuting distance, and because of the location, having your own transport is recommended.
