About the job

Do you like an active everyday life, good service and a strong sense of camaraderie?

We are looking for a service-minded driver for our driver team in the recycling department under Service & Emergency Preparedness, Horsens Municipality. You will have a varied workday where safe operations, good communication and teamwork are essential, both when you meet citizens and when you solve tasks together with your colleagues.

Do you want to roll up your sleeves, take responsibility and be part of a team where we help each other and make everyday life function? Then we would like to hear from you.

An important part of everyday life in Horsens Municipality

Service & Emergency Preparedness is a municipal operations unit that among other things oversees the operation of Horsens Municipality's recycling centers, container transport, and emptying of underground waste stations.

You will become part of the Recycling Department, where we solve many different operational tasks. The tempo here is sometimes high, and we succeed best when we cooperate, communicate clearly and are ready to help each other.

Your tasks

You will have an active and varied daily routine with practical tasks within recycling and waste management. Among other things you will be involved in:

  • Drive and handle containers and solve transport tasks
  • Empty underground waste stations
  • Contribute to the daily operation of the municipality's recycling centers and other operational tasks
  • Provide good service and communicate professionally with citizens and colleagues
  • Collaborate with the rest of the driver team and help where there is a need
  • Work safely, responsibly and with focus on quality in task execution

The job is a full-time position with weekend shifts, and it is therefore important that you are flexible with regard to working hours.

Who are you?

We are looking for a colleague who meets others with a positive and welcoming attitude, and who thrives with both independent work and collaboration in a team.

We imagine that you

  • Are service-minded and good at communicating with citizens and colleagues
  • Have a category C and E driving license and a valid EU certificate
  • Have crane certificate
  • Have basic IT skills at user level
  • Are stable, responsible and in good physical shape
  • Are flexible with regard to working hours and ready to help where needed

The most important thing is that you take responsibility, contribute positively to the community and want to help make the operation function.

What we offer

With us you become part of a workplace with many different tasks and colleagues who help each other. We offer:

  • A versatile job in a municipal operations organization
  • Good colleagues and close cooperation in the driver team
  • A workplace with room for differences
  • Focus on well-being and a good care culture
  • A daily life where we work based on Horsens Municipality's values: Holism, Respect, Quality and Result
