We are looking for a compassionate individual who is also highly motivated and enthusiastic.
The successful candidate will be expected to provide instruction to companions on the safe handling, loading, and unloading of goods and will support the welfare, care, and development of companions in the community in a manner which embodies the Emmaus ethos.
Working alongside companions and reporting to the Site and Recycle Manager, the Van Driver will provide and promote a supportive and nurturing environment for companions whilst also successfully fulfilling the duties of the Van Driver.
If you have the relevant personal qualities, experience, skills, enthusiasm, a positive “can do” attitude and would relish the chance to work in this dynamic, progressive, and successful charity, we would like to hear from you. You will be joining a friendly and enthusiastic team who are passionate about what they do and a social enterprise that has an exciting future.
