Driver - Food Rescue!

For UKHarvest

UKHarvest's mission to prevent food waste and insecurity relies heavily on our volunteer drivers. Without this support, we would not be able to rescue surplus food or deliver to the people who need it most.

We want you to join the team and help to ensure that we can continue to have a real impact in local communities across the south of England.

We've started a new project to rescue even more food directly from local farms and producers!

You'll be become part of a team collecting tonnes of surplus food each day such as tomatoes, peppers and lettuce, that would unnecessarily go to waste.

Skills

Being a competent and confident driver is a must.
You can be guided by a satellite navigation system, but it's also important that you have a good level of situational awareness and judgment.
Sometimes, you may be required to help load and unload the van at both ends, so you'll need to be prepared to do the occasional bit of lifting.
