We work with vehicle manufacturers, leading financial institutions, fleet and leasing businesses, and nationally recognised daily rental and car subscription operators and collect and deliver new and used vehicles to locations across the country from our offices and hubsites throughout the UK.

We're looking for Drivers to join our team to complete collections and deliveries for our fast-growing organisation. You will be in contact with our team to discuss timing details, re-route plans and other essential information as well as liaising with customers over the phone and in person. This requires excellent communication skills and the ability to deliver to a specified location on time and with accuracy.

· 5 days per week (Mon – Fri)

· Picked up and dropped back at a depot every shift with NO PUBLIC TRANSPORT

How it works:

A team of drivers meet at a set depot. You’ll be dropped at your 1st collection and given a destination to deliver the vehicle to. A Team Leader will follow you and re-collect you and take you to the next collection. You will finish the day at the base location.

This is not a 9 to 5 role. Start time is generally around 7am, with the length of days changing from day to day, depending on daily volumes.

Routes can vary from heading up to head office in Derby, down to London or over to Wales.

This is a self-employed role, offering up to 5 days work per week. Ideally, we would like people to be available Monday to Friday, but 4 days per week may be considered as long as Friday (our peak day) is 1 of the 4 days that you’re available.
