About the Company

Join a thriving, forward-thinking company specialising in electrical waste management and recycling. We are committed to sustainability and delivering exceptional service to our clients. As part of our team, you'll play a key role in maintaining efficient operations and supporting our mission to reduce environmental impact.

Key Responsibilities

As a Forklift Driver, you will:

- Operate forklifts to safely load, unload, and transport materials across the warehouse or yard.

- Handle electrical waste materials, ensuring careful and compliant handling.

- Perform manual handling tasks such as lifting, sorting, and moving items as required-this role is not solely forklift operation.

- Organise inventory by moving and stacking pallets accurately.

- Conduct daily checks and basic maintenance of forklifts to ensure safety standards.

- Work collaboratively with warehouse staff to meet deadlines and maintain productivity.

- Adhere to all health, safety, and environmental guidelines.

- Support general warehouse duties as required when forklift operation is not needed.

What We're Looking For

- Valid forklift license (e.g., Counterbalance) with relevant experience.

- Experience in a fast-paced warehouse or industrial setting (experience with waste management or recycling is a plus).

- Good physical fitness-this role involves manual handling and standing for extended periods.

- A keen eye for detail and commitment to safe working practices.
