Contract: Full-time, Permanent
Start Date: Mid-September

Our client is a growing and reputable logistics business specialising in international shipping, freight forwarding and logistics services. They manage a wide range of freight operations including ocean and air freight, customs clearance and warehouse distribution for imports and exports.

Due to continued growth and the purchase of a new artic, our client is looking for an experienced Class 1 Driver to join their team on a full-time, permanent basis from mid-September.

  • Covering London Gateway, Felixstowe and Southampton ports
  • Completing daily multidrop deliveries
  • Delivering goods safely and efficiently while maintaining excellent customer service
  • Completing collections and deliveries across the M25 and surrounding areas
  • Ensuring all relevant transport and tachograph requirements are adhered to
  • Carrying out vehicle checks and reporting any issues appropriately

About You
The ideal candidate will have:

  • A valid Class 1 (C+E) driving licence
  • Valid Driver CPC qualification
  • A valid Digital Tachograph Card
  • Previous experience completing multidrop deliveries
  • A good knowledge of London, the M25 and surrounding areas
  • Previous container experience would be advantageous
  • Port cards for Felixstowe, Southampton and London Gateway would be beneficial, although these can be obtained once in the role if required
  • A reliable, professional and customer-focused approach

If you’re an experienced Class 1 Driver looking for a stable, Monday-to-Friday permanent position with a growing logistics business, we’d love to hear from you.

Apply today to be considered for this opportunity, with a mid-September start.
