  Service welfare units and septic tanks — empty, clean, refill chemicals, replenish consumables.
• Midday:
  Deliver non-potable water or remove waste from industrial sites (including drilling waste, soil engineering, and interceptors).
• Afternoon:
  Complete final site visits, record job details and photos on Big Change, and get customer sign-off.
• End of day:
  Return to depot, complete paperwork, clean and maintain vehicle, pumps, and hoses.

• HGV Class 2 licence, Driver CPC (35 hours), and valid Digi Tacho card.
• Previous HGV driving experience – tanker or waste sector experience an advantage.
• Good knowledge of Health & Safety and willingness to follow procedures.
• Ability to maintain your vehicle to a high standard and carry out minor repairs.
• Professional approach to customers and ability to handle queries on site.
• Flexibility for occasional weekend/event work and overtime.
