• Completing shared driving duties
• Working closely with colleagues on customer sites
• Completing delivery documentation, timesheets and associated paperwork
• Maintaining a professional and helpful approach with customers
• Supporting additional installation and logistics duties when required

Requirements

• A full UK driving licence with no more than three penalty points
• Applicants must be aged 21 or over due to driving and insurance requirements
• Strong communication and customer-facing skills
• Good computer literacy
• A practical, hands-on approach
• A willingness to learn specialist installation skills
• Exceptional flexibility regarding working hours and locations
• Comfortable staying away from home Monday to Friday every week
• Available to work two weekends each month
• Mechanical, electrical, transport or installation experience would be beneficial, although applications from other practical backgrounds will be considered

Pay and working-away arrangements

• £30,000 basic salary
• Weekday overtime paid at 1.25 times the standard rate
• Saturday overtime paid at 1.5 times the standard rate
• Sunday overtime paid at 1.75 times the standard rate
• Typical annual earnings of approximately £45,000-£50,000 with overtime
• Hotel accommodation provided when working away, normally in a Premier Inn or Holiday Inn
• £39.90 daily working-away allowance, with no receipts required

This opportunity is best suited to someone who values variety, is comfortable with extensive travel and wants the opportunity to increase your earnings through regular overtime
