Inverness, United Kingdom Scottish Water Full time
Together we are Trusted to Serve Scotland.
Most people don't think too much about how clean water reaches their taps.
But Scottish Water does. Frankly, it's all we think about.
Join our Tankering Team in the Inverness area and you'll help our teams make sure Scotland has a constant supply of safe, high-quality water.
What you'll do
To support our commitments around protecting the environment the Tankering Team within Scottish Water provides an essential waste transportation service from both Water and Wastewater treatment sites.
You will carry out a private septic tank service to domestic and commercial customers where our drivers act as ambassadors for us with these customers. The team operates across all areas of Scotland and utilise both rigid and articulated tankers removing sludge from various Wastewater Treatment Plants and Public septic tanks.
You will ensure all work undertaken complies with all relevant Health and Safety Regulations, completing vehicle checks and inspections, liaising with fleet on aspect of vehicle maintenance, repairs, servicing, and MOT's. You will also ensure that all work is carried out in accordance with Scottish Water policies and procedures relating to sludge transportation.
What you'll bring
We'll get you fully up to speed on the technical bits of the job. You'll bring strong communication skills and confidence working on your own. We are also looking for you to have the ability to ensure your work is delivered professionally, efficiently and on time, play a key role optimising Tanker usage for Scottish Water.
Can plan and prioritise your work whilst maintaining a flexible approach to accommodate changing priorities and be able to build trust and credibility with customers who you interact with, being focussed on their needs and acting as an ambassador for Scottish Water.
Ideally, we would like you to be a holder of a valid CPC card and valid Cat C license.
What you'll get
While the work we do is important, we know it's not the only thing that matters. That's why we make sure you have everything you need to find a good work-life balance.
This role has some weekend working and standby requirements. But you'll get plenty of time to recharge with 38 days of holiday every year (including public holidays). And you can even buy five more if you need a little extra time. You can also take time off to volunteer in your community.
When it comes to major life events we have family-friendly policies around adoption, maternity, and parental leave. And for the everyday? We embrace flexible working.
For your future, there's our pension (the 'know-what-you'll-get-when-you-retire' kind), and life assurance.
As for some nice extras? You can expect an annual company bonus. Not to mention access to SW Splash - handy rewards that can save you money on holidays, bills, and shopping.
The not-so-small print
This role will be a Grade 3. If you're new to Scottish Water, you'll join us on a starting salary of £25,980. Performance-driven pay progression would then allow you to move through the range to a maximum of £30,000.
If you're interested in this role - or know someone else who might be - we'll be accepting applications until midnight on the 29th September 2024.
A few final things worth knowing...
Research shows that some people avoid applying for jobs unless they can meet every single criteria. If you're interested in this job, but don't tick all the boxes, apply anyway We hardly ever hire people who can do every part of a job from Day One. Everyone has a learning curve. So don't rule yourself out
Let us know if there are any changes we can make to our recruitment process to help you perform at your best. Lots of our people have disabilities or neurodiverse conditions (including some of our recruiters). We're also aware that some people might be experiencing temporary challenges because of life events, like menopause. We're very used to making adjustments, so please don't be afraid to ask.
As part of our commitment to developing a flourishing Scotland, it's important that all our employees are Scottish taxpayers. If you join us, your home address will need to be in Scotland. If you don't already live here, you'll need to commit to moving here within your first three months.
Finally (finally), candidates who haven't submitted an application in the last 12 months will have their records removed from our recruitment database. You won't need to do anything. Your data will be automatically deleted.
We're here to help. Ask us anything at
