Job description

Driver (Bank)
Eastleigh HSSU Hub | Sterile Services | Ad hoc | Part time

Salary £12.84 per hour

Our Hospital Sterile Services Unit (HSSU) transports sterile and disinfected surgical equipment to our local hospital network. If you have a full driving license with a C1 entitlement which allows you to drive rigid vehicles up to 7.5 tons Gross Vehicle Weight (GVW) and hold a digital tachograph card, you could enjoy the benefits of joining the UK’s largest Healthcare Charity.

A full Driver Qualification card (CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) is advantageous but full training is available.

As a Driver on our HSSU team, you’re comfortable with manual handling and happy to move transport trolleys weighing upwards of 250kg. As well as a basic knowledge of current driver hour legislation, you ideally hold a driver digital tachograph card. You’ll be a great ambassador for our unit and our customers’ first point of contact.

As a Driver, you will:

• Collect and make deliveries to our customers.
• Keep equipment & delivery vehicles in good working order and report any faults / defects
• Keep a clean, tidy work environment and identify stock issues as they arise
• Maintain accurate tachograph records and documentation
• Be flexible with your working hours (shifts operate between 4am and 10pm, Monday to Friday with varying times on Saturdays.)

As a Bank Worker, you’ll be called on to provide cover during periods of sickness, holidays or increased workload. We’ll give you a uniform and personal protective equipment. You won’t be classified as an employee, so there’ll be no fixed working pattern, or entitlement to guaranteed or continuous employment.

Helping you feel good

We want you to love coming to work, feeling healthy, happy and valued. That’s why we’ve developed a benefits package with you in mind. From Holiday in line with the Working Time Directive, access to our Pension Scheme and discounted gym membership at £35.00 a month.
