Who are we

We are the UK’s leading builders' merchant! With over 500 branches across the country, we offer a wide range of products, from timber and bricks to kitchens, tools, and equipment. Our team is friendly, supportive, and inclusive, and we are passionate about providing fantastic career opportunities with room to grow and develop new skills. Whether you're supporting customers, working behind the scenes, or delivering goods, there’s always the chance for you to thrive with us. Discover why we’re the go-to choice for builders—join us today!

What you’ll be doing

As a key member of our team, you’ll be at the forefront of customer service, assisting both in-branch and off-site (during deliveries), ensuring top-tier service while prioritising the safety of your colleagues and customers.

Building lasting relationships with our customers is vital to our success, so we’re looking for someone who’s friendly, approachable, and eager to offer excellent service. You’ll become familiar with many of our customers on a first-name basis!

Driving our transit and flatbed vehicles (up to 3.5ton), you’ll be responsible for multi-drop deliveries, ensuring orders are delivered to local customers promptly and in perfect condition. Your role will involve maintaining high safety standards at all times—especially while loading, unloading, and driving our vehicles.

Who you are

We’re looking for an experienced driver with at least 12 months’ experience and a minimum of a Cat B licence (up to 3.5ton).

You’ll be a hardworking individual, with a willingness to perform physical tasks and heavy lifting. Whether interacting with customers in the branch or out on deliveries, your customer service skills will shine through.

Experience in customer service and health & safety awareness is essential, but don’t worry, we’ll support you in learning the rest!

We’ll give you all the tools you need to succeed and provide a fantastic introduction to our business.

What’s in it for you

  • Be part of the UK’s largest builders’ merchant, with endless career development opportunities through our award winning apprenticeships and development programmes.

  • Enjoy a wide range of benefits to support your career and well-being:

    • Competitive annual salary

    • Performance-based bonuses to reward your hard work

    • Save-as-you-earn and Buy-as-you-earn schemes for smart financial planning
