Rigid Driver
A global leader in FMCG distribution is looking for a committed and energetic Rigid Driver to join their expanding team. This is your chance to build a long-term driving career with a company known for stability, modern fleet standards and real opportunities to grow. You’ll be the face of a respected household brand while enjoying a role that offers consistency, routine and the satisfaction of delivering quality products to customers every day. You must hold a Category C licence along with valid and in-date CPC and digital tachograph cards. The role operates on a 5‑over‑7 rota and may include working every second weekend.
You will arrive at the distribution centre at 05:30am to find your truck pre-loaded and ready to roll with 10–15 drops planned for the day. After completing a quick pre-drive safety check, you’ll hit the road and carry out your deliveries safely and professionally. Once your route is complete, your day is done. No second runs. No unnecessary waiting around. You finish when your run finishes which gives you predictable hours and work-life balance.
Previous multi-drop experience is a bonus but not essential. If you are newly qualified and eager to start your driving career, this is a fantastic place to do it. A valid C licence, CPC and tachograph card are required.
You will complete a two-week induction programme designed to build your confidence and set you up for success. This includes shadowing an experienced Rigid Driver, learning the handheld system and getting familiar with the routes so you feel fully prepared before going solo.
Responsibilities:
- Complete up to 15 scheduled deliveries safely and efficiently while representing the brand to a high standard
- Carry out a full daily vehicle safety inspection before departure
- Handle all products with care ensuring accuracy and professionalism at every stage
- Drive responsibly and in full compliance with Road Safety Laws
- Deliver a friendly, reliable and customer focused service at every delivery point
- Use the handheld device to scan, record and confirm all deliveries accurately
Requirements:
- Full, valid Category C licence
- Up to date CPC and digital tachograph card
- Ability to successfully complete a company driving assessment
- Fit to complete a standard company health screening
- Reliable, organised and proactive with strong problem-solving skills
