Kingston upon Hull, United Kingdom East Riding of Yorkshire Council Full time

**The job itself**:
Drive a refuse vehicle to collect household, industrial and commercial waste from a variety of locations e.g. domestic properties, schools, highway maintained, shops, etc. When not driving you will be required to assist in the loading of the vehicle, working as part of the operating team with a hands-on approach, ensuring the effective delivery of the day-to-day waste service collections.

You will work overtime or weekends to catch up the refuse/recycling service after a bank holiday, due to vehicle breakdown / inclement weather or other operation pressures. On occasions, when the service dictates, you will be required to work on Saturdays and Bank/Public Holidays, for which the appropriate enhancement will be paid. There is a requirement to work between Christmas and the New Year.

We seek a person who preferably has refuse collection experience, although training can be given where necessary. Initiative, communication skills and good customer care skills are essential for this post.

A full driving licence is essential, with the entitlement to drive LGV Class C vehicles.

The role is based at the Hedon depot, but good local knowledge of other areas within the East Riding would be useful.
