Job Description

Large Goods Vehicles (LGV) drivers will undertake delivery and collection of products to and from a variety of locations in line with all company policies and procedures.

Overnight, late in the day and/or early in the morning - even on weekends. You have the option to work 32 hours over 4 days or 40 hours over 5 days. Our routes are assigned up to 12.5 hours per day and as such you will regularly be expected to carry out additional hours as required.

Day-to-day you will collect shopping from our state-of-the-art warehouses and take it to our smaller regional sites. No multi drops or hidden lanes.

• Paid Driver Medical in line with licence requirements- through our approved supplier
