We are committed to equality of opportunity for all staff

Applications from individuals are encouraged regardless of age, disability, sex, gender reassignment, sexual orientation, pregnancy and maternity, race, religion or belief and marriage or civil partnership status.

Ban the Box

We support the Ban the Box initiative, a campaign which creates a fair opportunity for people with convictions to compete for jobs. We do this by removing the tick box from application forms and we ask about criminal convictions later in the recruitment process.

Bristol Equality Charter

We are also part of the Bristol Equality Charter, a commitment Bristol organisations make to help improve equality, diversity and inclusion across the city.

Equality, diversity and inclusion

It’s hugely important to us that our organisation reflects the diversity of our community, service users and partners. We understand that as a company we are underrepresented by ethnic minorities, women and LGBTQ+ people across our workforce and we want to change this. Bristol Waste Company is committed to targeting these groups during our recruitment process and welcome candidates who can contribute greater diversity of representation at all levels of our business.

Important note on applying for jobs

Please apply as soon as possible and before 23:59 on the closing date. Sometimes we close vacancies early if we receive a high number of quality applications.

Due to the high volume of interest, we won’t be able to receive late applications and we’re currently unable to respond to all who apply.

If you haven’t heard from us within three weeks of the closing date, it unfortunately means you won’t be invited to interview on this occasion.

Thank you for your interest in working for Bristol Waste, and in making people’s lives cleaner, safer, and better.
