Pay & benefits

What you'll get

At Abri, you'll be part of a supportive team that values the contribution you make. In return, we'll provide a range of benefits to support your wellbeing, work-life balance and professional development, alongside opportunities to learn, grow and build your career with us.

The role

At Abri, we believe everyone deserves a clean, safe, and welcoming place to call home. We're looking for a Waste Collection Operative to join our team and play an important role in helping our communities look and feel their best across the South-West.

This is a hands-on, outdoor role where you'll see the difference you make every day. From collecting bulky waste and keeping communal areas tidy, to jet washing shared spaces, you'll help create environments that our customers can be proud of.

What you'll do

No two days are the same, but you'll spend your time:

  • Collecting bulky waste, litter and recyclable items from our communities and ensuring they're disposed of responsibly.
  • Keeping communal areas clean, tidy and welcoming for customers and visitors.
  • Jet washing communal pathways, bin stores and other shared spaces.
  • Working across our communities, providing a reliable service while treating customers, residents, and members of the public with respect.
  • Taking pride in helping to create places where people love living.

The difference you'll make

The work you do will have a visible impact on our communities every single day. By helping to keep shared spaces clean, safe and well cared for, you'll contribute to creating a place where people feel comfortable, connected and proud to live.

Join us

If you take pride in a job well done, enjoy working outdoors and want to make a genuine difference in the communities we serve, we'd love to hear from you.

We'll review applications and interview suitable candidates as they apply. If we receive a high volume of applications, we may close the advert early, so please apply as soon as possible to avoid missing out.

In their own words

About the company & team

Abri is a large housing provider who own and manage more than 58,000 homes and various community assets, serving around 113,000 customers across the South of England.

We believe everyone has the right to a good quality safe, warm and sustainable home in a community where they can belong, grow and thrive. What does that look like in real terms? 

 We’re investing £689m over the next ten years in our existing homes to improve building safety and make them more energy efficient.

  • We’re delivering 10,000 homes by 2030, ensuring affordable housing is built where it’s needed most
  • We’re investing in our communities, to address local issues and create opportunities for everyone 

As we grow, we’re re-establishing our strong local presence to provide a really good service. Abri has adopted a regional approach to service delivery, with our operating areas split into three, each with their local governance and leadership. This will ensure our colleagues are more visible, accountable and better connected to our customers and local communities to meet their diverse needs.
