    Our mission statement

    Our Mission: Resourcing the world. Improving Access to Resources Veolia offers operations solutions that consume fewer environmental resources and are more economically efficient, to expand both the potential and the accessibility of the resources available. Preserving Resources Veolia develops solutions to conserve resources and optimise their use, while protecting their quality and efficiency through the usage cycle. Replenishing Resources Veolia provides solutions for creating new "Secondary" resources that will gradually offset the increasing scarcity of natural "primary" resources, generating new opportunities for social and economic development that protect the environment.

    The team are great but the direction and workload aren't.
    The good thingsFuel benefits and the team
    The challengesBeing lumped with everyone's work just because you know how to do it, and the staff not doing the work arent made to improve. Not staffing correctly and not paying in line with workload expectations.

    Just avoid the waste industry altogether... customers are very demanding, and no good companies
    The good thingsMost people are nice and happy to help each other
    The challengesVeolia was a good place to work until they changed the system. Now we are inundated with constant complaints, system issues, and invoice disputes. The new system doesn't work properly, is extremely clunky, and has constant errors. Training was basically nonexistent when it was launched. Working at Veolia has become hell. Not to mention they have a new GM of Sales who is aggressive, belittling, disrespectful and has zero waste experience. Avoid the waste industry altogether.
