About the Role
Are you an experienced Supervisor or Team Leader, ideally with a background in recycling or a similar industry? At SUEZ, we are committed to making our world a more sustainable place—a highly complex challenge that requires diverse and inspirational individuals to help us move forward.

About you
You should be confident managing and working with a team, possess good IT skills including experience with Microsoft packages, and hold a valid driving licence. A HGV licence is desirable but not essential.
