* Self-motivated with strong initiative.
* Confident communicator, able to speak with people at all levels.
* Able to manage own workload and downtime.

Training & Development
For long-term/permanent candidates, training may include:
* Chemical testing (4–6 weeks).
* Manual handling.
* Working across hazardous waste sites within the wider department.
Initial site introductions and training will be provided. Initially required to use own vehicle for the first 1–2 weeks (subject to review). Flexibility offered for appointments (e.g., dentist, school run).
