Who we are & what we stand for

Do you want to help make Gateshead a place where everyone thrives? If that sounds like you, keep reading - we might be the perfect match.

We’re delighted that you’re interested in working with us. You’d be joining us at a very exciting time.

We pride ourselves on our ambitious and forward-thinking approach to taking care of Gateshead and its people, and we passionately believe that our employees reflect that spirit in truly enabling Gateshead to thrive.

At Gateshead Council you’d be a highly valued member of a team that recognises and respects the skills that you bring to your role, encourages creativity and passionately advocates a great work / life balance. Our actions speak louder than words, and with flexi-time and hybrid working available across many of our roles, as well as a full suite of outstanding employee benefits, we’re confident that it isn’t just the salary that attracts our staff.

The Highways & Waste team are responsible for ensuring that Gateshead is a safe and attractive place in which people can live, work and spend free time. From waste strategy, including collection and recycling to the maintenance of our highways and street lighting. You’ve probably also noticed significant investment in the restoration of the Tyne Bridge, and our Highways team continue to play a pivotal role in that restoration project of a local landmark.

We are seeking an enthusiastic and motivated Waste Education and Engagement Coordinator to play a key role in improving recycling across the borough. This is an exciting opportunity to work directly with residents and communities to raise awareness of recycling services, encourage positive behaviour change, and help reduce the amount of waste sent for disposal. By supporting residents to recycle more effectively, reduce contamination, and make best use of existing services such as food waste, paper, and garden waste collections, the role will contribute to improved environmental outcomes and deliver real financial savings for the Council through lower disposal costs and increased recycling income.

What you'll get to do:

Identify areas within Gateshead where contamination of recycling is taking place
Interrogate existing data held in Bartec to support the identification of areas requiring intervention
Carry out targeted doorstepping and facetoface engagement with residents to explain the service, including the use of surveys
Ability to work outside normal working hours to engage with different sections of the community
Monitor and target areas where recyclable materials are present in residual waste, contamination levels are high, or paper tonnages are low
Provide a coordinated approach to encourage positive actions and reengage householders who may have become complacent, such as ordering recycling containers
Undertake return visits to households to check progress, provide further advice, and educate residents using interactive techniques, including examining bin contents with the householder
Comply with all relevant Health and Safety requirements and Council policies and procedures
Assist with communications campaigns, including the production and design of recycling information, leaflet drops, roadshows, and attendance at key events and residents’ groups
Work closely with key staff within recycling services to develop an integrated approach
Support the WEEE recycling improvement project
Support green waste collections and encourage resident participation in the scheme
Respond to resident queries in a professional and timely manner
Undertake maintenance and repair of residual and recycling bins to provide refurbished, reusable, and serviceable bins
Promote battery recycling through designated return points
Work alongside partner agencies, private housing associations, and ethnic groups to promote and encourage recycling
Assist with the delivery of bins
Respond to allocated case files from GOSS
Support wider environmental awareness initiatives, including dog fouling, litter, and flytipping

What you'll bring:

Category C1 Licence (ability to drive up to 7.5Tonne vehicles).
Valid Driver Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC).
Communicating effectively (written and verbal)
Proficient in Microsoft software packages
Experience of working in a team
Ability to work with minimum supervision
Experience of working within the waste sector
Experience of dealing sensitively with customers
Strong organisational skills to manage workloads and meet deadlines
Effective problem-solving and decision-making skills
Five GCSEs including Maths and English (or equivalent qualification)
