Pure Staff's Driving Team are currently recruiting experienced HGV Class 1 Drivers to support one of our long-standing customers based in Redditch. This is an excellent temporary to permanent opportunity for reliable HGV Class 1 Drivers looking for regular day work and the opportunity to secure a permanent position with one of the UK's leading independently owned logistics businesses providing transport and distribution services to major contracts all over the UK.

This HGV Class 1 Driver role is based at our customer's Redditch transport operation, supporting a major national tool and trade retailer. Drivers will complete planned store deliveries using rolling cages, typically completing around 3 to 5 deliveries per shift.

Typical start times are between 04:30 and 08:00, with regular day shifts available. Most importantly, our customer is looking for drivers who want to become properly established on the contract. Successful drivers will receive a comprehensive induction and training programme before working independently, making this an excellent opportunity for drivers looking for stability and a genuine route into permanent employment.

Training & Induction

Our customer operates a thorough induction and training process to ensure drivers are completely comfortable with the role before being expected to complete routes independently. Successful HGV Class 1 Drivers will complete:

• Initial interview
\n
• 8-hour classroom induction
\n
• Driving assessment
\n
• Approximately 3 to 4 days of buddy training alongside an experienced driver providing practical training on store locations, routes and delivery procedures
\n
• Begin working your own routes once training has been successfully completed

Rather than simply putting drivers straight out on the road, you'll be given the opportunity to properly learn the operation and become familiar with the routes and stores before working independently.
