We are seeking a driver for 18T rigid vehicle for delivery work. The majority of deliveries will take place in the Greater London area, though occasional longer trips outside London may be required. There are no overnight stays. Typical London routes include 10 to 15 drops, with potential for more during busy periods. Start times depend on the route.

Drivers are responsible for completing a mandatory safety check of the vehicle before starting their shift, which takes at least 15 minutes and must be documented. While a driver’s mate will accompany every vehicle, drivers will need to assist with deliveries. All vehicles are equipped with an electric pump truck and tail-lift to facilitate the work.

As this is a customer-facing role, professionalism when interacting with customers is essential, especially during the delivery and goods inspection process.

• Collaborate with transport managers to plan delivery schedules and routes.
• Ensure all loads are securely fastened to maintain safety during transit.
• Monitor traffic reports and adjust routes as necessary to avoid delays.
• Completing delivery paperwork and logbooks or any other required documentation.
• Handle the loading and unloading of company vehicles with care and precision.
• Good geographic knowledge of the local delivery area.
• Experience of multi drop deliveries to customers, including general public locations and job sites.
• Experience of working in a similar delivery or logistics environment.
• Deliver goods into customers premises, checking delivery accuracy and ensuring documentation is signed.
• Collect and manage any returned items as part of the delivery process.

• UK Class 2 licence with no more than 6 penalty points (clean licence preferred)
• Current CPC card with up-to-date training (7 hours per year)
• Non-UK licence holders must exchange their CPC/Tacho cards for UK equivalents before employment or upon renewal
• Solid understanding of EU/Domestic tachograph regulations, including working hours, rest breaks, and driving time limits
• Experience with delivery work in Central London
• Familiarity with tail-lift operation
• Ability to operate an electric pump truck
• Knowledge of parking rules and regulations
• Strong time management skills and ability to maintain schedules
