About Us
Here at Suma, we’ve been doing things a bit differently for over 40 years. Not only in our mission to supply everything vegetarian, ethical and sustainable, but also in how we run our successful business.
Suma is a worker co-operative; a business owned and run by nearly 200 members who work here. We’re a group of ordinary people who have built a business on principles of integrity and equality. Suma workers work together collectively to set the direction of the business – there are no shareholders and no traditional ‘bosses’. Everyone at Suma gets paid the same wage, takes personal and equal responsibility and does a range of different jobs each week.
We are currently looking for an HGV Driver to join us on a full-time basis for a fixed term contract of 12 months. A route to permanent employment is available through gaining membership of our co-operative.
The Benefits
– Salary of £17.24 per hour (expenses as extra)
– £37,859 – £46,822 per annum
– Generous holiday entitlement – 38 days for a full-time worker
– Staff discount on goods Suma sell
– Overtime can be taken as pay or time off in lieu
– Access to occupational sick pay
This is a fantastic opportunity for a dedicated HGV Driver to join our co-operative organisation as we deliver nourishing organic vegetarian food across the UK.
You will discover a supportive and passionate team that believes in fairness, sustainability, and ethical business practices, working together to create a workplace where collaboration thrives, every contribution is valued, and your efforts make a real difference.
So, if you want to be part of a company that is very much driven by their ethics, read on and apply today!
The Role
As an HGV Driver, you will provide a crucial link between Suma and our customers, by delivering and collecting goods efficiently and safely, ensuring our customers receive excellent customer service.
Beyond this, you will complete all necessary paperwork and identify any defects and provide feedback to your co-ordinator.
Following all procedures as set out by Suma and external authorities relating to safe and legal driving, you will also ensure that our vehicles remain roadworthy and safe, raising issues where required.

– Experience driving an HGV vehicle to conduct deliveries and collections
