About the Role
At Adler & Allan, no two days are the same. We’re seeking a motivated, hands-on Environmental Response HGV Technician / Multi-Skilled Operative to join our dynamic team in Rainham.

If you thrive in practical, problem-solving environments, enjoy outdoor work, and want to be part of a trusted team that responds when it matters most, this role could be perfect for you.
Responsibilities
- Operating company vehicles (HGV Class 2 tankers and specialist equipment)
- Conducting high-pressure water jetting, drain, and interceptor cleaning
- Supporting environmental spill response, including oil, fuel, and chemical incidents
- Assisting with tank uplifts, industrial cleaning, forecourt PPM works, and remediation projects
- Managing pumps, vacuums, and hoses for environmental response operations
- Collaborating with experienced operatives on major projects and reactive works
- Completing vehicle checks, site paperwork, and safety documentation
- participating in emergency response call-outs as part of the on-call rota.
