We are looking for a dedicated and reliable waste collector to join our team working to keep our cities and communities clean and sustainable. As a waste collector, you will play a vital role in ensuring that waste is properly collected, sorted, and transported to the appropriate facilities. You will work outdoors in various weather conditions and be part of a team that prioritizes safety, efficiency, and environmental responsibility.
Your primary tasks will include the daily collection of household waste, recyclable materials, and garden waste from residences, businesses, and public areas. You will operate waste collection vehicles and ensure that waste is handled in accordance with applicable regulations and guidelines. Additionally, you are expected to report any issues, such as damaged containers or hazardous waste, to the appropriate authority.
We are looking for someone who is physically fit, has a strong work ethic, and can work effectively both independently and as part of a team.

The position requires flexibility, as working hours may vary and early mornings or weekend work may occur. You must have a valid driver's license, and experience driving larger vehicles is a plus.
