No Handball Class 1

Job description

About

Prefer to focus on driving rather than unloading? We’re recruiting experienced HGV Class 1 Drivers for straightforward trunking work, with regional and nationwide routes, regular weekday shifts and no manual handballing.

You’ll be responsible for completing depot-to-depot trunking runs, transporting goods safely between locations across regional and nationwide routes.

You’ll be driving curtain-sided trailers, with all loading and unloading carried out by forklift. This means there is no manual handballing, allowing you to concentrate on driving safely and completing your allocated journeys efficiently.

You’ll also carry out daily vehicle checks, follow transport procedures and maintain high standards of road safety throughout your shift.

You must hold a current HGV Class 1 licence (Category C+E), a valid Digital Tachograph Card and a valid Driver CPC Card. Your Class 1 licence must have been held for at least 12 months.

For insurance purposes, you must have no more than 6 penalty points, relating to minor offences only. Applicants must not have DR, DD, IN, CU or MS convictions.

You’ll also need to be reliable, safety-conscious and professional, with the ability to complete trunking routes independently.

This is an ongoing temporary position offering regular work for suitable drivers.

The role operates Monday to Friday, with early starts and regular daytime finishes. There is no weekend work, providing a consistent working routine.

£18.50 per hour, with PAYE workers able to accrue up to 28 days’ annual leave pro rata.
