We are currently seeking an experienced Class 2 Driver. We want someone who can complete an average of 16 to 25 per day on average to local counties, with more challenging long distance runs to locations like Exeter, completing less drops due to distance travelling. Most clients you deliver to will complete unloading using forklift trucks, but you will be expected to complete a small amount of handballing as part of your job.

If you have Reach or Counterbalance forklift driving experience this would be preferred, but full training will be given to all employees. The main challenges for this opportunity will be the need to engage with repeat clients / customers, with a high level of service, and representation, following guidelines and standard operating procedures.

Complete on average 16 to 25 drops per day to commercial clients in Hampshire and surrounding counties. Travel to more distant counties like Exeter to complete up to 10 drops. Complete manual handballing where required. Follow all driving rules and regulations as well as company policies and procedures.
