WORK EXPERIENCE
HGV Driver
FOWLER WELCH COOLCHAIN LTD – Washington
September 2017 to Present
I began driving Class 2 vehicles for Fowler Welch in September 2017 for 3 months until I progressed to my Category C+E vehicles. This work included store deliveries to all of the Tescos in the North East. This included Multi-stop deliveries and working early mornings as well as switching between the two categories of vehicles.
I have 6 months experience of Driving class 1 trucks and 9 months experience combined. During this time I have been given extensive training with various kinds of trailers from urban articulated trailers to double deck trailers. Along with this I spent a lot of time being trained on how to drive fuel efficiently and understand the importance of maintaining good efficiency whilst still making onward progress. I am a very quick learner and keen to try new things, I am a hands on sort or person who isn’t afraid to get stuck in. I am open to local deliveries as well as distance work. I am flexible with shift patterns and start times and open to change. Driving is a passion for me and I love being on the road and the satisfaction that comes with getting the job done successfully. I take pride in being careful and cautious and maintaining a good reputation in what I do.
