Job description

HGV Driver - Huws Gray Derby Lake House - Drive Safely. Deliver on Time. Represent Huws Gray on the Road.

Be Part of Something Bigger at Huws Gray.

Whether you're in the trade or simply love a good home improvement project, chances are you've heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group – home to a family of trusted brands including Huws Gray, Huws Gray Plant & Tool Hire, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI, and Anglia Tool Centre. Across the UK, our branches support local communities with everything they need for building, improving, and creating – we couldn’t do it without our people and that’s where you come in!

As a HGV Driver, you play a vital role in ensuring our customers receive their materials on time and in great condition. No long‑haul journeys, no late nights—just local deliveries and a strong team backing you up every step of the way.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering materials to our local customers - making sure they get exactly what they need, when they need it
• Building great relationships on the road - acting as an ambassador for our brand
• Staying up to date with Health & Safety practices - including tachographs, training, and delivery administration
• Taking pride in your vehicle - ensuring it meets all relevant standards

We’re happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview. While we might not be able to meet every request, we’ll always listen with an open mind—and there’s no judgment in asking.

What You’ll Bring

We don’t expect you to know everything from day one – If you have a Class 2 Licence, we’ll give you the training, tools, and support to succeed. What matters most is your positive attitude and willingness to get stuck in. A HIAB licence is a bonus, but not a dealbreaker.

What’s In It For You

We believe great work should be recognised and rewarded. Here’s what you can expect:

• A strong annual leave allowance, alongside your bank holidays
• Company bonus scheme, based on performance
• Contributory pension and life assurance
• Discounts on high street retailers, supermarkets, restaurants, gyms and cinemas
• Colleague discount across our group brands
• Attraction and travel discounts
• Training and development programmes to support your growth

We offer on-the-job training and opportunities to work towards recognised qualifications, including apprenticeships.

We’ll support you to gain your HIAB certification if you don’t already have it. Training will be provided by us, and you’ll become fully qualified to operate HIAB equipment. A training agreement will apply, meaning if you leave the business within a set period after completing the training, you’ll be required to repay the cost.

At Huws Gray, we believe that a diverse and inclusive workforce makes us stronger, smarter and better at serving our customers.

We’re proud to be an equal opportunities employer and we are committed to creating a respectful and inclusive workplace, whether you’re based in one of our branches, on the road or in one of our offices.

If you need any adjustments to support you through the application or interview process, please let us know.
