Job Description :

Class 1 Driver - Days

Class 1 LGV Bulk Drivers. Enjoy the drive

Day Time multi drop positions available nationwide

45 hours per a week, from Monday to Friday,

At DHL Parcel UK, we give our Class 1 Drivers everything they need to enjoy the drive.

  • A £1,500 welcome bonus
  • A lorry from our exceptional fleet of Volvo vehicles, all less than 4 years old. They’re a joy to drive, and are equipped to a high specification, including fridges, leather seats and many more optional extras to make sure you’re comfortable.
  • Strong work/life balance –most of our sites run from Monday to Friday, with 45 hour working weeks, and 9 hour shifts per day which typically start at 7/8am. Our well-organised shift schedules mean you often know in advance where you’ll be driving, taking the stress out of your day.
  • The job security of a growing, global business. We operate a busy fleet – so there’s always all the work you need. If you want additional hours, you can have them, and we offer enhanced rates of pay for bank holidays and night-time hours (10pm-6am).
  • We’ll pay for your CPC – and the hours you take to complete it. Our in-house training academy means you can do any training during work time.
  • Great benefits – from a generous pension and retail discounts, to perks like seasonal hampers throughout the year to say thanks for all your hard work.
  • A friendly team our drivers often stay with us for many years (we treat them well!) so you’ll be joining a friendly team who support each other – including sharing traffic updates through WhatsApp!

The job in a nutshell

We don’t micromanage our drivers. We trust them to get the job done and plan their own routes. The average number of stops in a shift is 4 to 6, so there’s plenty of time to enjoy being out on the open road – but you’ll still be home again at the end of every 9-hour shift. You’ll:

  • Make sure Cages, Pallets, Freight, Stillages and Yorks get to and from customers bang on time. At some sites, the goods will be loaded or unloaded for you – at others, you’ll need to do it yourself. Scanning consignments and driving pallet trucks will sometimes be part of your day.
  • Inspect your vehicle and trailer every day, and complete a Defect Report if necessary
  • Make sure everything is ‘right first time’ for your customers, both internal and external. A great communicator, you’ll work hard to keep customers happy, making sure any queries you can’t answer are passed on to your site manager quickly.

What you’ll need to join us

  • Class 1 Driving licence
  • Driver CPC qualification card
  • Completed required DCPC training hours or be working towards them
  • Excellent knowledge of Road Transport Laws – and commitment to safe use of the roads
  • A ‘can do’ attitude
