Founded in 1971, URM has come a long way since its humble beginnings as a single garbage collection vehicle. We have built a solid foundation, and our superior performance has helped us become one of Australia's largest privately owned resource recovery and recycling companies. We are proud to be recognised as an industry leader, earning a reputation for our unrivalled drive to achieve excellence in the services we offer.
Currently, we employ over 350 dedicated team members and operate a collection fleet of over 350 vehicles, in addition to operating multiple processing facilities and assisting numerous partners in implementing sustainable environmental solutions.
The opportunity
We now have an exciting opportunity for multiple MR & HR Marrell drivers to join our Auburn Depot team on a full-time basis. In this role, you will play an important part in the transportation of waste material from our customer sites across the Sydney Metro area.
As our newest driver, you will be part of a team that operates our skip trucks, collecting and transporting waste material from residential and commercial properties to designated disposal facilities. You'll work with a team of dedicated professionals to ensure that our waste removal services are carried out efficiently while ensuring the highest level of safety.
Responsibilities include:
- Safely operate collection vehicles such as MR/HR Skip Trucks
- Perform safe loading and unloading of skip bins onto collection vehicles
- Perform daily prestart training and post-trip inspections of the collection vehicles, including post-vehicle checks
We provide complete on-the-job training, including onboard systems and compliance, fatigue management, and chain of responsibilities. Our people's success is one of our priorities, and we provide all the support and training you need to be a high performer and thrive in the role.

Ideally, you will have previous experience in the waste industry, but if not, we will provide you with all the required training to operate and efficiently drive a skip truck in line with safety requirements. Safety is of utmost importance to us, and we are seeking someone who can follow instructions and ensure our safety protocols and procedures are adhered to.
We are looking for individuals who are calm, resilient, possess strong time management skills, and have a high degree of concentration and attention to detail. Additionally, you should have a professional approach, strong communication skills, and the ability to build relationships with a wide range of stakeholders.
Please note all successful applicants will be subject to pre-employment checks including a medical assessment, drug and alcohol testing, driver history check, and other ad hoc screenings that may be required for your role.
