Join Our Growing Green Team
COM:POST is transforming how the floristry industry deals with waste — collecting floral green waste and turning it into high-quality compost that goes back into UK growing. This isn’t a typical driving role. It’s active, purposeful, and genuinely rewarding.
Our drivers are the face of COM:POST. They’re trusted by some of London’s leading florists, and they play a vital role in keeping our closed-loop system running smoothly.
The Role
As a Green Waste Logistics Driver, you’ll be responsible for collecting compostable floral waste from florists across London and transporting it to our composting sites. You’ll work independently on well-planned routes, using a COM:POST van, and finish most shifts by midday.
This is a physically active role, ideal for someone who enjoys early starts, being on the move, and working outdoors rather than sitting behind a desk.
Key Responsibilities
Collect and transport floral green waste from COM:POST customers
Drive a COM:POST van safely and efficiently across London
Complete collections to schedule and planned routes
Carry out basic vehicle safety checks
Keep the vehicle clean and well-presented
Provide friendly, professional service to our florist customers
Accurately record collections and report any issues
What We’re Looking For
Full UK driving licence
Comfortable with physical work (lifting and moving bags)
Reliable, punctual, and well organised
Happy working independently
Able to work early mornings (typically from 5am)
Commercial driving experience helpful but not essential
