Cards: Valid Driver CPC, Digital Tacho, and RHIDES card (essential).
Experience: Proven experience in container transport and port operations (Felixstowe port experience is highly desirable).

Transporting freight containers to and from the Port of Felixstowe and other major UK container terminals.
Completing direct-to-customer container and trailer deliveries.
