Yard Operative​/Relief HGV Driver

Yard Operative/Relief HGV Driver – Quensferry

We’re on the lookout for a Yard Operative/Relief HGV Driver to support our team s is a varied and active role, ideal for someone who enjoys working outdoors, being part of a practical team, and helping customers get exactly what they need to get the job done.

As a Yard Operative/Relief HGV Driver, you’ll play a vital role in the day-to-day running of the yard. Here’s what the job involves:

• Providing a friendly, knowledgeable service to customers in the yard
• Safely receiving and organising deliveries – keeping the yard tidy and secure
• Supporting with vehicle loading/unloading – helping the team get deliveries out on time
• Making occasional local deliveries – when cover is needed (e.g., holidays or absences). You will also be expected to drive the branch van when the class 2 vehicles are out.
• Being vigilant about stock security and safety procedures

We’re happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview.

We’ll give you the training and support to help you feel confident and ready to go. What really matters is that you’ve got a can‑do attitude and you’re happy to step in and help wherever it’s needed. You’ll need a Class 2 licence for this role, and if you’ve got a forklift licence too, that’s a nice extra – but it isn’t a must‑have.

We believe great work should be recognised and rewarded. Here’s what you can expect:

• A strong annual leave allowance, alongside your bank holidays
• Company bonus scheme, based on performance
• Contributory pension and life assurance
• Discounts on high street retailers, supermarkets, restaurants, gyms and cinemas
• Colleague discount across our group brands
• Attraction and travel discounts
• Training and development programmes to support your growth

We offer on‑the‑job training and opportunities to work towards recognised qualifications, including apprenticeships.

We’ll support you to gain your HIAB certification if you don’t already have it. Training will be provided by us, and you’ll become fully qualified to operate HIAB equipment. A training agreement will apply, meaning if you leave the business within a set period after completing the training, you’ll be required to repay the cost.

At Huws Gray, we believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce makes us stronger, smarter and better at serving our customers. We’re proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we are committed to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace, whether you’re based in one of our branches, on the road or in one of our offices.
