About the role:

You will drive a lorry from our exceptional fleet of Volvo vehicles, all less than 4 years old. Theyre a joy to drive, and are equipped to a high specification, including fridges, leather seats and many more optional extras to make sure youre comfortable.

Most of our sites run from Monday to Friday, with 45 hour working weeks, and 9 hour shifts per day which typically start at 7/8am. Our well-organised shift schedules mean you often know in advance where youll be driving, taking the stress out of your day.

The role gives job security, working within growing, global business. We operate a busy fleet - so theres always all the work you need, giving you job security whilst working within a growing, global business. If you want additional hours, you can have them, and we offer enhanced rates of pay for bank holidays and night-time hours (10pm-6am). Youll be joining a friendly team - our drivers often stay with us for many years (we treat them well!) so youll be joining a friendly team who support each other - including sharing traffic updates through WhatsApp!

Key Role Responsibilities

We dont micromanage our drivers. We trust them to get the job done and plan their own routes. The average number of stops in a shift is 4 to 6, so theres plenty of time to enjoy being out on the open road - but youll still be home again at the end of every 9-hour shift.

Youll make sure Cages, Pallets, Freight, Stillages and Yorks get to and from customers bang on time. At some sites, the goods will be loaded or unloaded for you - at others, youll need to do it yourself. Scanning consignments and driving pallet trucks will sometimes be part of your day.

Youll be responsible for inspecting your vehicle and trailer every day and complete a Defect Report if necessary.

You will make sure everything is ‘right first time for your customers, both internal and external, and as a great communicator, youll work hard to keep customers happy, making sure any queries you cant answer, are passed on to your Site Manager quickly.

The ideal candidate will have:

• Class 1 Driving licence
• Driver CPC qualification card
• Completed required DCPC training hours or be working towards them
• Excellent knowledge of Road Transport Laws - and commitment to safe use of the roads
• A ‘can do attitude
