Learning and Development - training and development support, no matter where you are in your career
A variety of social events across the group, including the company Christmas party.
It might be a long way off but we know it’s not always easy to stop working so we provide advice and support to ease the transition to retirement.
So who are Altro?
A leading European manufacturer and supplier of premium flooring and wall cladding systems for Healthcare, construction and transport. We have been going strong since 1919. Family owned and run, we share family values; we care about you, each other and what we do.
What we are looking for...
We're looking for someone with a strong background in manufacturing, industrialisation, process improvement or technical engineering, who enjoys working across teams and developing people.
You'll ideally have:
A degree (or equivalent experience) in Engineering, Manufacturing, Materials Science, Chemistry, Polymer Science or a related discipline.

Experience taking products, materials or processes from development into operational production.

A strong track record of problem solving, root cause analysis and continuous improvement.
The ability to build strong relationships and influence stakeholders at all levels.
Excellent communication skills, with the ability to explain technical concepts clearly to non-technical audiences.
A practical, collaborative and delivery-focused approach.
Everyone is welcome at Altro for who they are, no matter what their background is or how they identify. We appreciate that everyone is different and with that diverse uniqueness we can all thrive. “We don’t want you to just work here. We want you to belong here.”
