Waste Recycle Operative
£12.71p/hr, Ongoing role, Ad Hoc/Part Time basis, ASAP starts
Atherton/Wigan/Leigh
Working on behalf of my client, I am looking for Waste Recycle/Site Operatives to work for a waste management company based in and around the Wigan/Leigh/Atherton areas. Please note that this is not a Full-Time position with set weekly shifts, and will require candidates to be available for weekend shifts as well as weekday shifts.
My client has sites based in Wigan, Leigh and Atherton so you could potentially work at all 3, so having access to your own transport or living on good public transport routes will be beneficial. With this being an ad hoc contract, there are no set shift patterns each week so flexibility and being able to work short notice shifts, especially covering weekends, are essential to the role.
General duties will include:
-Assisting members of the public disposing of their waste in the allocated areas
-Keeping the site clean and tidy
-Adhering to strict Health and Safety protocols
-Assisting the public with any general enquiries
-Traffic management and ‘meet and greet’ duties
Ideal candidates will be hard working with a 'can do' attitude, willing to work outdoors in all weather, be friendly and approachable to members of the public, have good communication skills and be flexible in their approach to work.
The successful candidates will be required to be available for shifts covering the full week as sites are open 7 days per week. Working hours will vary depending on the time of year, although currently working hours are 8am to 8pm (Winter hours decrease to 9am to 6pm). The Pay Rate for the role is £12.71p/hr.
