Position Overview & Specifications

Due to increases in our workload, we are currently looking for drivers to fill ad-hoc, temporary and ongoing placements with our clients

We require drivers for all classes of vehicles from vans and cars right up to Class 1 HGV/LGV articulated lorries, including specialised skills such as HIAB & ADR.

The range of work available is fairly diverse, to name but a few our clients’ operations range from delivering and collecting hire vehicles, to pharmacy and supermarket deliveries, builders merchant deliveries, and many others.

Whether you’re looking for full or part-time hours we can probably help as our assignments can be anything from one-day bookings right up to permanent full-time work, and just about everything else in between.

The majority of our work is in and around Cardiff but as we cover all CF and NP postcodes we have clients as far out as the Bridgend area, Rhondda valleys, and even as far up as Chepstow.

Experience in delivery work of some kind is preferred but not essential

All work is on a PAYE basis with holidays accrued based on the amount of work you do and pension payments made for those who are opted into the Workplace Pension Scheme

Whilst we endeavour to be as competitive as possible, rates of pay can vary from client to client as well as according to the class of vehicle and any specialised skill(s) involved. Further to this, aside from a very few exceptions, our drivers are always guaranteed at least 8 hours pay for any weekday they work regardless of what time they actually finish

Interested?

Send in an application with your CV attached, feel free to ask any questions you may have and our Recruitment Consultant Alun will get back to you and endeavour to answer any questions you care to ask
