One of the biggest benefits is knowing that you are truly making the world a better place to live for the next generation whilst building your sustainable career.

What you will be doing:Our Drivers are key members of our business and strategy. Without them, our business would come to a standstill, as how would we move our materials!

As part of your working day, you will be transporting material between EMR sites and customer sites. You’ll be a representative of our business on internal and external sites, being the kind of person who always likes to promote our values and treat customers the way you would like to be treated.

You’ll be driving hooklift & skiploader vehicles. If you have no experience in these vehicle types, or a similar industry, don’t worry, we would still like to hear from you. We offer comprehensive in-house training in all aspects of the role and appreciate that even the most skilful operator had to learn their trade at some point.

All this whilst you build a sustainable career working for an ethical employer.
About you:So if you have the ability to communicate effectively with customers and co-workers, and provide a high level of customer services and you hold a valid Category C (Class 2) license, Then this  will be the perfect role for you.
