As one of our drivers, you'll become a familiar face to our customers, delivering essential civils and drainage products to around six customer sites each day across Cambridge and the surrounding area.

If you're a Class 2 driver who takes pride in providing excellent service and wants to join a business that genuinely values its people, we'd love to hear from you.

• Safely operate an 18T HGV vehicle
• Deliver drainage and civils products, including pipes, tanks, fittings and attenuation crates
• Complete deliveries accurately and on time
• Carry out daily vehicle checks and ensure legal compliance
• Build positive relationships with customers on site
• Represent JDP professionally at every delivery point
• Maintain high standards of health, safety and customer service

At JDP, our drivers are more than just drivers. They're trusted ambassadors for our business and play a vital role in delivering the service our customers rely on every day.
