Our drivers are responsible for maintaining all vehicle/goods movements and completing all necessary paperwork and interfacing with the systems we use.  Deliveries take place at night and it’s our driver's responsibility to offload/reload the vehicle using the branch forklift truck.  We will naturally provide FLT training if needed. 

Safety and compliance is always at the top of our agenda, and our drivers are responsible for carrying out vehicle checks, maintaining roadworthiness, adhering to transport legal compliance and ensuring that all loads are correctly secured for transportation.

Am I right for the job?

Applicants will have a Class 1 (C+E) driving license, up to date CPC records and 2+ years of driving experience.  You’ll also require a recognised forklift truck & reach truck type licence, although if these have lapsed, refresher or full training can be arranged.  Our drivers are passionate about what we do for our branches/customers, we want like minded drivers to join our team with the same mindset and ambition.
