Location: Dartford, Kent

Wage - A£153 per day - A£765 per week, A£19 p/h after 11 hours per day

As part of your employment, we will pay for and train you in gaining your ADR in packages certification.

The work is consistent i.e. it is a full time, permanent job with weekly pay and your own allocated truck.

The trucks available are automatic Volvos or DAFs. Each of which is valeted prior to a new driver going into the vehicle.

Benefits

• 20 days holiday plus 8 bank holidays per year.
• A pension plan is optional with your employment.
• Training is provided where necessary.

About the role

• This HGV Driver role involves working directly for our customer, on contract.
• Our customer will be your point of contact for all operational work; however, we will be your point of contact should you have any issues with the truck or what the customer is asking of you!
• We are looking for experienced multi drop driver's ONLY.
• These HGV roles are independent and are ideal for driver's that like to think for themselves.
• London driving will be a part of this job.

Required for the job

• You must ensure that you secure all pallets, and your tachograph and vehicle checks are legal each and every day.
• This logistics role is based on 11-hour days with 5/6am starts, Mon-Fri with no nights out.
• Some days you may work 9-10 hours, obviously this is to your benefit, however if you work over 11 hours you get paid overtime.
• If you come back to the depot after completing your run and the customer asks you to do something further within your 11 hours, you will be expected to carry out this work - this isn't regular but worth mentioning.
• Communication is key for this role, preparation of routing and load positioning is essential to achieving the workload with minimal disruption.

This HGV Driver role involves palletised transport work, doing multiple deliveries or collections per day to commercial premises across Essex, Kent, London and other areas in the Southeast. Of a morning you would be expected to put your card in, do your walk round checks, go to the office to get your consignments for the day, then head down to your allocated bay in the warehouse, check your load against the consignment notes, secure the load as necessary and then commence driving!
