The role

What you'll do

You'll be moving stock like civils, heavy building materials, and drainage solutions from our branches to customers, all while keeping it safe and professional. You'll load up your vehicle with a HIAB (lorry-mounted crane)-don't have the licence yet? No problem! We'll fully fund your training to get you up to speed. You'll make sure your vehicle's loaded right, safe, and legal, plus do vehicle checks before hitting the road. Expect plenty of local multi-drop deliveries, with regular returns to the branch to reload. You'll also pitch in with loading, unloading, and keeping your vehicle clean and tidy. Above all, safety comes first, and you'll make sure our standards never slip.
