Women on Wheels

‘Women on Wheels’ is an essential training, development and inclusion based program designed to create opportunity for women.
 

 

Good people, and a career that makes a difference.

At Veolia Australia and New Zealand, you’ll join a team of passionate innovators... and good humans. Our environmental solutions help customers preserve and renew our natural resources, creating a better future for our planet. Here, you’ll have the opportunity to build your career, and resource the world. 

At Veolia, we value diversity and inclusion. The Waste Management sector can be seen as heavily male dominated, but we believe that good workers come in all forms, and diversity of our people adds depth and richness to our business. It enables us to provide the best possible service to our customers and the community. Our ‘Women on Wheels’ program is a great initiative that supports women looking to kick-start a career in Waste Management. 

We know many women are interested in a career as truck drivers, but often the cost and commitment to become accredited with a Medium Rigid or Heavy Rigid vehicle licence, without the security of a role at the end of the course can often create barriers. 

As part of the Women on Wheels Program, we’re committed to removing these barriers by providing successful candidates with structured training and development, paid by Veolia. Enabling candidates the opportunity to learn on the job from supportive and experienced operators.

What we offer: 

  • Full-time opportunities
  • Comprehensive training and support
  • Career growth potential
  • Competitive benefits package
  • Inclusive work environment

What we’re looking for
As a Waste truck driver at Veolia, no day is the same and there will be plenty of diversity in your daily activities and the people you engage with. Your job is a critical part of our environment and economy - an essential role in the local community.

What you'll need to be successful: 

  • Class (Car) licence with minimum 2 years driving experience
  • Ability and commitment to participate in the Women in Wheels program and on the job training
  • Team players who enjoy autonomy
  • Good verbal communication
  • Motivated individuals with a positive attitude
  • Commitment to safety and excellence 

As a company, Veolia’s ambition is to become the benchmark company for Ecological Transformation - so being passionate about the environment is also a must. By joining Veolia, you’ll have the opportunity to work with good people, in a career that makes a difference.
