• Carrying out basic vehicle checks and ensuring safe loading practices

What We're Looking For

• Valid Category C1 (7.5t) driving licence
• Digital tachograph card and current CPC
• Physically fit and comfortable with regular manual handling/lifting
• Good understanding that this role combines driving and loading not driving alone
• Punctual and reliable, comfortable with an early start (06:00)
• Previous waste, logistics, or bulky item collection experience is a plus but not essential

Why Apply

• Fixed MondayFriday hours no weekend work
• Early finish at 14:00
