•

Night-Out Allowance: Receive £25.00 per night out (typically out 4 nights a week).

•

Clean Card Bonus: An extra £25.00 per week bonus just for keeping a clean tacho card.

•

Secure Parking: Free, secure on-site parking at the depot for your own vehicle.

What You’ll Be Doing

Operating nationally from our base, you’ll be the driving force behind our bulk movements, trunks, and general haulage:

•

National Trunking: Safely operating HGV Class 1 lorries (primarily curtainside and some flatbed trailers) across major UK routes.

•

Securing the Load: Making sure everything is safely loaded, strapped, and secure before you set off.

Tramper DNA: Complete flexibility and enthusiasm for long-distance trips and staying away 4 nights a week.

•

Trailer Savvy: Experience with curtainside trailers is key, and flatbed experience is a massive bonus.

•

Network Experts: Great knowledge of the UK road network and smart route planning skills.

•

Top Standards: A clean driving record, strong attention to detail, and an organized approach to your paperwork.
