A busy and fast paced business with great benefits, and plenty of opportunities for career progression – join BSS as a Warehouse Assistant/Driver and share our success and good times with a hard-working, friendly bunch of people.

The role


There are two aspects to this role and your ability to adapt to each will demand flexibility and a can do attitude. Being a Warehouse Assistant/Driver takes a lot of character. It calls for someone who enjoys working with people and has the enthusiasm it takes to deliver more than just goods, but a fantastic service too. The role is varied with no two days being the same. One minute you will be unloading supplier deliveries, picking orders or serving customers on the trade counter, other days you will be loading your vehicle and delivering goods to a range of different places.

What we are looking for


A positive attitude and professional manner is a must. You’ll also need a clean driving licence and ideally CPC qualifications and previous experience of multi drop deliveries. Whilst driving our vehicles you are the face of the business and the way in which you represent the company is just as important as the products you deliver. 

About us


BSS Industrial - we are a leading distributor of heating, pipeline, process and mechanical services equipment to the Building Services and Industrial sectors. Established over 110 years ago, we became a part of the Travis Perkins Group in 2010 and now have more than 60 BSS branches, along with a National Distribution Centre at Lutterworth in the East Midlands and a National Tube Distribution Centre in Coventry. We have a wealth of experience in our people - technical support, customer care, product engineering and design along with our market leading own brand - BOSS.

We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. 


You be you, it makes us, us.
