We’re looking for recycling operatives to join the waste management and recycling team at our Biggleswade depot.

As a waste management and recycling operative, you’ll be part of friendly team – working together to unload our lorries and organise waste for recycling and collection. It’s an active role where you’ll work towards daily targets as you move around the warehouse. If you’d welcome the opportunity to get some exercise while you’re on the clock, this could be the right job for you!

In return for your hard work you’ll also get great onboarding training and support, fantastic on-site facilities, a competitive salary and benefits package, and a manager who listens to you and works with you to protect your wellbeing.

We want to make Biggleswade a welcoming and inclusive environment – it’s important our team represents the communities it serves, so we welcome and encourage applications from people of all backgrounds. Here you’ll be part of a team that works together to celebrate difference and gives colleagues a say on the day to day things that affect them at work.

What you’ll do

* unload delivery vehicles with cages and pallets
* organise and distribute waste to the correct location in the warehouse
* stack pallets for recycling collections
* work in a team to achieve key targets
* follow all the depot health and safety procedures

This role would suit people who have

* the ability to comfortably perform manual tasks
* good communication skills
* the ability to work within a team environment

Why working with us

As one of our colleague you’ll do work that matters in an organisation where principles are just as important as profits. You’ll also get a package that includes:

* competitive rates of pay
* additional shift allowances
* extensive wellbeing and support benefits

Building an inclusive workplace

We’re actively building diverse teams and we welcome applications from everyone. We want to create an inclusive workplace where everyone can give their best and realise their full potential, and the depot has been designed with colleague welfare at the heart of the operation.

Colleague focused facilities have been built into the fabric of our site, including outdoor break areas, a wellness area and contemplation room, ample showers, and large and open unisex locker rooms and gender-neutral toilets.

*Salary calculation is based on a 37.5 hour week, with rostered weekend working included. Therefore earnings could change depending on the shift pattern/rota we agree with you.
