Full job description
Are you looking to learn how to be an HGV Lorry Driver?

Our programme doesn’t just get you through your driving test. Over a period of months we teach you the practical skills and technical knowledge you need to feel confident to safely earn a living being a driver.

This is a great opportunity to start your career in logistics with a DVSA Earned Recognition status company that has been trading for over 50 years.

We have been running our Warehouse 2 Wheels scheme for over 3 years and aim to train one or two people a year to be our drivers of the future.

During the first 6-9 months you will work mostly on site with the Loading team and subject to development reviews progress as follows:

Safety Induction
Certified to drive a FLT
Safely loading vehicles and basic logistics safety
Van deliveries – delivering and collecting freight safely , customer service, driver IT
At around 6-9 months HGV training will commence.

Working as a driver, or in any logistics role, is not for those who seek a regular 9-5 job. Hours are very varied.

You will need to be responsible, flexible, hard-working, reliable, enthusiastic and a good team player and thrive in busy, fast paced environments.

Driving an HGV is subject to additional rules and regulations and we will help you to develop your working practices to make them second nature.

We are very proud of our drivers , they are the face of our company and an essential part of our local business community..

IN RETURN

You will receive fully funded training and qualifications in a friendly and supportive environment.

Starting pay is NMW for age (Currently £10.85* – £12.71) This increases to £14.00 per hour upon gaining your HGV licence. As you develop in your career and increase your skills, earnings can grow and exceed £35 – £45k per annum.
