Don't just take our word for it, to listen to Steve talk about why he enjoys working for Keyline, and what a typical day looks like.

What will I be doing?

Our drivers are responsible for moving stock (mainly civils, heavy building materials and drainage solutions) in a safe and professional manner from our branches to our customers. Loading the vehicle in the yard using the HIAB, it’ll be your responsibility to ensure the vehicle is properly loaded, safe and in-line with road and transport legislation. You will be performing local multi-drop work, returning back to the branch at least once to reload for your next run.

Am I right for the job?

Applicants will have a Class 2 driving license, up-to-date CPC records and recent driving experience. No HIAB? No problem! The branch will fully fund your HIAB training, ensuring you’re qualified and comfortable operating vehicle mounted cranes. You’ll be confident in dealing with our customers, building new relationships and developing existing ones. The successful candidate will be safety focussed, ensuring work is completed in a safe and professional manner. Our drivers are passionate about what we do and delivering for our customers, and we want like-minded drivers to join our team with the same mindset and ambition.

We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves. You be you, it makes us, us.
