Van Driver

Do you want to be a valued part of the critical infrastructure that serves communities across Europe and beyond? Are you looking for a position in which you can keep things moving and deliver when it matters most? If so, then you could be the newest addition to our team as a Van Driver.

Be part of the movement - and play your part.

Working Monday to Friday, 07:00-17:00, you'll be responsible for the collection and delivery of goods across the local area and wider network. This is a varied role involving customer deliveries, collections, and occasional overtime to support our Dundee collection service.

• Collecting and delivering a range of freight, including boxes, pallets, and other general goods
• Loading and unloading vehicles safely and efficiently
• Completing daily vehicle checks and reporting any defects
• Planning routes and managing delivery schedules to ensure deadlines are met
• Completing delivery paperwork and maintaining accurate records
• Providing a professional and friendly service to customers at collection and delivery points
• Supporting additional collection work, including overtime on Wednesdays.

You'll hold a valid driving licence and be confident driving a van in a safe and professional manner. Previous delivery driving experience is beneficial but not essential.

You'll thrive in this role if you're reliable, organised, and enjoy working independently. Excellent customer service and communication skills are essential, as you'll be representing DFDS at customer premises throughout the day. A positive attitude, good timekeeping, and a willingness to help wherever needed will help you succeed in this varied and rewarding role.

We think the strongest teams are built on diversity and inclusivity. Contrasting opinions, varied skills and strong characters bring out the best in us all. And we cannot wait for you to join.

Join the movement and grow with us.

We'll support you on your journey and create the conditions that make it worthwhile.

Now about what we can give you. You'll be able to access some fantastic benefits such as:

• Life assurance cover
• Contributory company pension scheme
• Holiday Purchase Scheme
• Free ferry travel for up to 4 guests between Dover and Calais / Newcastle and Amsterdam with no limit on trips
• Full employee assistance programme including:

We look forward to hearing from you.
