Job Description

If you're looking for a solid, vehicle technician role where you can get stuck in and keep a busy fleet moving, then keep reading.

Dunmow is the biggest independent waste management firm in Essex. And we're proud of our Essex heritage. Across the county, we operate dozens of trucks, all servicing waste sites that never stop moving. When something breaks, you're going to be the difference between the job getting done or the whole place grinding to a halt.

The job

You'll get your hands on everything.
Vans, skip trucks, artics, trailers, tyres, sheeting systems. If you're handy with a welding torch, even better. Typical day? Resolving daily defect reports, diagnostics, emergency repairs, the odd bit of fabrication and the inevitable "can you please sort this out, mate?".

If you can keep your patience when a driver is saying "it was fine yesterday" while the truck is clearly dying in front of you, then you'll fit in.

We have R&M contracts and tyre contracts in place, but you'll be on the front line. So you'll need to be cool under pressure.
