Van Driver

Location: Aberdeen Depot

Shift: Monday to Friday

09:00 - 18:00

About the Role

As a Biffa Van Driver, the role holder will be reporting directly to the Transport Manager and will be responsible for the professional and efficient collection, transportation, and disposal of customers’ waste. Whilst adhering to health and safety and other Company procedures.

Because the service is reactive in nature with the emphasis on providing excellent and memorable customer service, you will need to be flexible across weekdays with some weekend working to ensure we can meet all customer requirements efficiently.

If you thrive in a dynamic environment and are passionate about delivering an exceptional service, this is the role for you.

Your Core Responsibilities

  • To professionally drive and operate vehicles as directed by the traffic office and transport operations manager, ensuring the efficient and effective collection, transportation, and disposal of customers’ waste.
  • To undertake routine vehicle checks and reporting defects where appropriate.
  • To complete all paperwork, including daily timesheets.
  • To carry out any other reasonable job-related tasks, this will include any other ad hoc tasks.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

Start with a chat, not a search bar

Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
