We're looking for a skilled 26T Class 2 Tanker Driver to join our Tanker Services Division. You'll be responsible for safely collecting and transporting a variety of liquid wastes, delivering non-potable water, and ensuring all work meets environmental, DVSA, and HSE regulations.

Your day will be varied — from servicing welfare units and emptying effluent tanks, to supporting industrial and construction projects. You'll use modern equipment, keep accurate digital records via our BigChange system, and maintain high standards of safety, service, and customer care.

• Morning: Vehicle checks, load preparation, and review of your day's work plan.
• First jobs: Service welfare units and septic tanks — empty, clean, refill chemicals, replenish consumables.
• Midday: Deliver non-potable water or remove waste from industrial sites (including drilling waste, soil engineering, and interceptors).
• Afternoon: Complete final site visits, record job details and photos on BigChange, and get customer sign-off.
• End of day: Return to depot, complete paperwork, clean and maintain vehicle, pumps, and hoses.

About You

• HGV Class 2 licence, Driver CPC (35 hours), and valid Digi Tacho card.
• Previous HGV driving experience — tanker or waste sector experience an advantage.
• Good knowledge of Health & Safety and willingness to follow procedures.
• Ability to maintain your vehicle to a high standard and carry out minor repairs.
• Professional approach to customers and ability to handle queries on site.
• Flexibility for occasional weekend/event work and overtime.
