Are you a Class 1 Driver who takes pride in your vehicle and prefers a consistent, organized route? Join BSS, a powerhouse in the Travis Perkins Group, for a dedicated night-shift role that offers stability, modern tech, and a "can-do" team culture.

You won’t be breaking your back with manual unloading here. Your focus is on the drive. You’ll be responsible for:

• Efficient Branch Delivery: Completing 3 to 5 multi-drop deliveries per night across our branch network.
• Professional Loading: Managing the arrival and positioning of your 44t vehicle for Forklift-only unloading (No handballing required).
• Fleet Excellence: Taking primary responsibility for your assigned DAF XF, ensuring pre- and post-shift checks keep our premium fleet roadworthy and compliant.
• Compliance: Maintaining accurate digital records and adhering to all road transport and traffic legislation.

What We’re Looking For

• License: A valid Class 1 (C+E) license with up-to-date CPC and Digi-Tacho.
• Experience: Previous experience with 44-tonne vehicles and multi-drop logistics.
• Autonomy: A driver who is comfortable working independently through the night and can resolve on-road challenges proactively.
• Mindset: A reliable, safety-first professional. While an FLT license is a bonus, we are more than happy to provide full training if you don’t have one.
