Your new company
You will be joining an existing driver pool at a large organisation in the Edinburgh area. Due to a new project being signed off, they are looking to add multiple class 2 HGV drivers for a contract running throughout the majority of 2026.
Your new role
Your duties may include:

Collect household, commercial, or industrial waste following scheduled routes for local collection.
Operate and drive class 2 waste collection vehicles safely, including driving, manoeuvring in tight spaces, and using lifting and loading equipment.
Communicate well with other crew members and the public, ensuring safe collection practices and resolving minor issues on the route.
Operate a handheld device for vehicle first-use checks and additional route information.
Be well-mannered and courteous at all times, reporting to the depot on time each morning.

What you'll need to succeed
You will need to be able to present a valid UK Driving Licence up to Category C with minimal endorsements, and ideally have experience working in waste & recycling driving roles previously. This contract will require you to start early in the morning from an out-of-town depot, where there will be free parking for your own vehicle and adequate public transport links.
What you'll get in return
You will be offered a start with a large employer on a long-term contract, with the potential for a permanent role to be applied for at any stage. Hays will pay you weekly PAYE with the option of building up a holiday allowance. You will receive regular updates from your Hays consultant and have any queries answered promptly.
