You’ll be moving stock like civils, heavy building materials, and drainage solutions from our branches to customers, all while keeping it safe and professional. You’ll load up your vehicle with a HIAB (lorry-mounted crane)—don’t have the licence yet? No problem! We’ll fully fund your training to get you up to speed. You’ll make sure your vehicle’s loaded right, safe, and legal, plus do vehicle checks before hitting the road.

Above all, safety comes first, and you’ll make sure our standards never slip.

• You’ve got a Category C Class 2 driving licence

• You’ve got recent HGV driving experience (if you’ve worked with a lorry loader/crane, even better, but not a deal‑breaker)
• You’re comfortable chatting with customers and building solid relationships
• You take safety seriously and always work in a professional and safe way
• You’re passionate about delivering for customers
• You’ve got the drive and ambition to be part of a great team
