Following on from previous successes, there is now the chance to learn about job opportunities with global company SUEZ. This is being offered by way of a virtual event next month.
Organised by Under Construction, the Employment and Skills Team at Sedgemoor District Council and Somerset West & Taunton’s Community Employment Hubs, the session will give an overview of current vacancies, a behind the scenes look at SUEZ and the benefits they offer followed by a question and Answer session. The event will take place online via Microsoft Teams on 15th September offering two sessions; the first session will be between 11:00-12:00 and an evening session between 19:00-20:00.
Somerset West and Taunton’s Skills Lead said “This industry is a vital part of our communities, the teams at SUEZ were keyworkers throughout the pandemic but services have been affected with the national driver shortage and Covid-19 which is still prevalent in the area”. The local councils are keen to support the recruitment drive, “joining this team can provide individuals with a stable future” a spokesperson from SUEZ said. The refuse and recycling collections performed by SUEZ are part of a long-term contract with Somerset Waste Partnership.
