Title: Class 2 Delivery Driver

Function: Distribution

Contract: Full time, Permanent

Hours: 43 hours per week, starting between 0330 and 0400

Location: Port Talbot

Are you a Class 2 Multi Drop Driver at the top of your game, but looking for something that puts you more in charge and able to provide a great customer service?

• Full UK Driving Licence with Class C entitlement
• Full Driver CPC

As the UK’s No.1 bakery brand, we’ve been baking up a storm since 1876. Today, we’re a proud sixth-generation family business, delivering over 70 products to more than 18,000 retail customers from 11 bakeries and 16 depots—including gluten and wheat-free options.

We’re committed to becoming a net-zero business by 2050 and are passionate about minimising our environmental impact while making a positive difference in the communities we serve.

The Recipe

• You’ll receive a 6-week induction and support from our in-house driver training team.
• You’ll be an early riser—shifts start around 03:30 (some patterns may vary). The upside? Your afternoons are all yours.
• You’ll enjoy plenty of autonomy. You’ll be given delivery notes (or an electronic device), from which you’ll accuratelypick the ordersand load your own vehicle with our baked goods—either at the depot or on the move.
• To help keep your day smooth and safe, knowledge of basic vehicle maintenance and transport legislation (Driver Hours, Working Time Directive, Highway Code, etc.) will be key in order to relay faults on defect forms.
• Once your route for the day is loaded into your onboard computer, you’re off!
• You’ll deliver to multiple customers daily (they’re like family to us), so top-notch service, strong relationships, and professionalism are a must. This includes being able to manage difficult conversations in a calm manner and acting as an ambassador for our brand.
• You’ll work a defined rotating 5-day pattern, including weekends. That’s 43 hours a week, though some weeks may be less. All of which will hopefully help you to plan your life around work more easily.

At Warburtons, you’re more than a driver.

There’s no aimless wandering looking for things. You load your own vehicle, making things that little bit easier to find. You’ll also make sure each delivery is picked accurately and in full from your delivery notes or electronic device. So, if you like to be hands‑on, love a bit of organisation, and want to keep the nation’s eggs in their soldiers, then hop in and join us on the road to bread‑based glory.

Extra Dough

And last and by no means yeast you will want to know what your breads worth:

• Basic Weekly Pay of £783.69
• A slice of the annual profits (discretionary profit share)
• Ongoing CPC Modules - your Driver CPC training is in work hours too, not outside of them.
• Award winning pension scheme with company contributions up to 7%
• Life assurance
• Products you'll love along with deals and discounts for you and the family through our Extra Dough website
• Continued investment in your personal development
• Fully stocked kitchens filled with our delicious products for you to enjoy with your daily brew!

We respect and value difference. We look to create an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. Companies that are diverse in age, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, or any other aspect which makes them unique, are proven to be better companies. More importantly, creating an environment where everyone, from any background, can do their best work, is the right thing to do.
