You will complete commercial waste and recycling collections across Ipswich, Felixstowe, Woodbridge, Bury St Edmunds, Colchester, and surrounding villages. Customers include bakeries, industrial units, retail outlets, food producers, and business parks.

Previous HGV Class 2 driving experience
Excellent spatial awareness and vehicle control skills
Confidence working alone and managing workload independently
A strong work ethic and reliable attendance record
Good awareness of health and safety procedures
Basic IT confidence using tablets and digital systems
Experience within the waste or recycling industry is beneficial but not essential, as full training will be provided
Experience using Microsoft Teams is advantageous but training can be provided

Why Join Us?

At Bolton Brothers Ltd, we offer:

Stable, long-term local employment
Supportive family-run business environment
