Yard Assistant​/Driver

A buzzing atmosphere, great benefits, and plenty of opportunities for career progression – join Keyline as a Yard Assistant/Van Driver and share our success and good times with a hard‑working, friendly bunch of people.

Whatever the weather, as a Yard Assistant you’ll serve our customers and complete all necessary paperwork accurately to make sure they are absolutely satisfied with the products they buy and the service they receive. You’ll also be responsible for ensuring the safe and correct movement of materials around the branch – including loading and unloading customer and company vehicles, offloading supplier deliveries into stock and picking orders.

When driver support is needed in the branch, you will be responsible for delivering our products to our customers using our delivery vehicles safely and efficiently. You must make sure the vehicle is loaded correctly and that we meet road transport and traffic legislation standards, helping our operations run as smoothly as possible. Most of the role will include the use of a counterbalance forklift truck but there may be occasions when manual lifting is required.

This is a key customer-facing role, so you will need great interpersonal skills. You’ll have previous experience as a driver and hold the appropriate driving licence. A forklift truck licence would be desirable, however not essential as training can be provided. We are looking for someone with a friendly and flexible personality who is happy to communicate face to face with customers.

Keyline is the UK’s number one supplier of civils, heavy building materials and drainage solutions, with a nationwide network of branches; and our aim is to be “Best in Town” for product knowledge, availability and customer service. We’re part of the Travis Perkins Group that’s been recognised as one of Britain’s Top Employers since 2010. If you aim to be the best you can be, then we’d like to hear from you.

We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best, and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. You be you, it makes us, us.
