Aligra has an exciting opportunity in Reading for motivated individuals who want to train and qualify as professional Skip Drivers. Whether you’ve gained experience with industry leaders like M&M Waste Solutions, Veolia, Hazels Skips, or you’re simply looking for a fresh start, away from companies like Tesco, Thames Water or Fed Ex this role is a brilliant pathway to a rewarding future.
Why Take This Opportunity?

You’ll receive high-quality on-the-job training alongside experienced drivers, working with a broad variety of clients—from major construction companies to members of the local community. We’re looking for individuals who are reliable, eager to learn, and keen to deliver a top-notch service.
What the Role Involves:
1. Learning how to operate skip vehicles safely and confidently
2. Completing deliveries and collections to customers across Reading
3. Working Monday to Friday with a consistent start time of 6:30am and a working week.
4. Overtime Available
5. Providing friendly, helpful advice and excellent service at each site
6. Ensuring vehicles are maintained to the highest standard and complying with all safety and driving regulations
What We’re Looking For:
7. A full UK driving licence (max. 6 points)
8. Willingness to learn and pursue a professional driving career
9. Good level of physical fitness – skip work isn’t just sitting behind the wheel!
10. A reliable, positive attitude and commitment to delivering great service
11. If you already have a CPC, that’s a bonus – but we’re happy to support enthusiastic candidates towards qualification
