Vacant job

Are you an engaged and responsible driver who wants to contribute to a sustainable future? Are you the right person for a new team in the new packaging collection department? SSAM is looking for environmental workers with a C driver's license and YKB starting in the summer of 2026.

About SSAM:
SSAM has a clear vision – a Småland without waste. With a focus on sustainability, environmental protection, and resource efficiency, they drive their work forward with the help of their core values: Joy, Respect, Forward Spirit, Sustainability, and Together. These values permeate both the work environment and the relationship with customers and the community.

What is FNI?
FNI (Property-Near Collection) means that all households and multi-family houses should be able to have residual waste, food waste, newspapers, plastic packaging, paper packaging, metal packaging, uncolored glass packaging, and colored glass packaging collected at the property boundary or in close proximity to it.

How does this collection differ from the current collection?
SSAM currently collects residual and food waste from villas, multi-family houses, and businesses. The difference with the FNI collection type is that they will also collect packaging waste from multi-family houses, which involves different types of vehicles and other waste being collected.
