The Opportunity

An established and successful haulage company, operating since 1977, is looking to recruit an experienced HGV Class 2 Driver to join its growing team following continued business expansion.

This is an excellent opportunity for a reliable and experienced driver to join a well-established business, delivering animal feed to farms across the South West.

The Role

You'll be responsible for driving modern automatic Volvo vehicles, completing daily delivery routes to farms throughout the South West.

Drivers typically leave the depot between 5:30am and 6:30am to begin their delivery rounds. The yard team prepares and fills the vehicles using the on-site mill, allowing you to focus on your driving and daily deliveries.

At each destination, you'll be responsible for unloading the animal feed and ensuring the delivery is completed safely and efficiently.

For drivers holding the relevant licence, there may also be opportunities to drive articulated vehicles.

• Ensuring deliveries are completed accurately and within scheduled timeframes.
• Carrying out daily vehicle checks and reporting any defects or maintenance requirements.
• Maintaining accurate delivery records and relevant driving documentation.
• Providing a professional and reliable service when dealing with customers.
• Working responsibly and safely throughout each delivery route.

What We're Looking For

• A full, valid Class 2 (Category C) driving licence.
• A Class 1 (Category C+E) licence would be advantageous.
• Valid Driver CPC qualification.
• Valid Digital Tachograph Card.
• Previous experience driving HGV vehicles.
• A reliable, responsible and safety-conscious approach to work.
• Comfortable with the physical aspects of unloading deliveries.
• Good communication skills and a professional attitude.

What's on Offer?

• £47,190 annual salary.
• 55-hour working week.
• Monday–Friday working pattern.
• No weekend work.
• Modern automatic Volvo vehicles.
• Opportunity to drive articulated vehicles for suitably qualified drivers.
• Join an established haulage business with a history dating back to 1977.
• A stable, full-time position within an expanding business.
