Who we employ at the Iver operating centre

HGV driver/operators

The Iver facility requires qualified HGV driver/operators to get behind the wheel of one of our distinctive fleet of state-of-the-art Lanes vehicles. Much more varied than a standard driving role, Lanes driver/operators help us carry out our most essential repair and maintenance work, receiving training to perform drainage-related engineering tasks using top-of-the-range equipment.

The high-volume work will see drivers interact with a wide range of customers, including domestic homeowners, business operators or staff in charge of sewage treatment plants. These roles do not necessarily depend on prior drainage industry experience, meaning professional HGV drivers with backgrounds in other sectors are welcome to apply.

Roles include:

• Tanker drivers
• HGV drivers
• Jet vac operators
