New Forest District Council is working with Keep Britain Tidy to undertake a survey of street level properties in the borough, including houses and houses that have been converted into flats, to record the potential for wheeled bins for waste and recycling to be used in the future.

The evidence shows that wheeled bins help drive up recycling and reduce waste, however not all properties in the district will be able to accommodate these new bins, for example due to lack of storage space.

Therefore, it is important for this survey to capture information about each property for a final decision to be made.

The survey will also include capturing information about each street for a risk assessment for the new collection vehicles and route planning, such as space for the vehicle to turn around, width or height restrictions and presence of schools.

Waste & Recycling Surveyors will work alone, outdoors in all weather, and will each cover a different area of the district each day on foot


Responsibilities include:

  • Making a visual assessment of the property based on defined criteria to assess potential for wheeled bins, e.g. capacity of outdoor space/frontage
  • Making a visual assessment of the street by identifying key hazards (width or height restrictions) and street information (presence of schools, if houses are on one or both sides of the road)
  • Recording information into a bespoke form using data collection software on a tablet (provided) and submitting this to the Project Manager on a daily basis
  • Meeting daily targets for the number of properties surveyed
  • Liaising directly with the Project Manager to ensure smooth running of the project and your own safety
  • Organising your own daily work plan and communicating this to the Project Manager

Additional responsibilities of the Waste & Recycling Surveyor/Data Officer (undertaken at home) include:

  • Downloading the data from the survey platform and importing it into an Excel document (laptop provided if needed)
  • Quality checking data to ensure it is both complete and correct on a regular basis
  • Providing regular updates to the Project Manager


The successful applicant will have an interest in and understanding of the environmental and waste sectors, and the ability and willingness to undertake monitoring work in an outdoor environment and administrative/engagement work in an office environment and/or at home.


This position will provide sought-after experience for someone looking for a career in the environmental sector, especially the waste and recycling industry, and is paid at the Living Wage.

In joining this project you also have the opportunity of joining our Bank of Casual Workers, through which further employment may be available at the end of this contract.

Full training will be provided.
