Are you an experienced HGV driver who takes pride in delivering outstanding customer service?
At Portable Space, we're looking for a professional and safety-conscious HIAB Driver & Customer Service Specialist to join our growing team. This is far more than a driving role. You'll be the face of our business, delivering portable accommodation units and welfare facilities to customers across the UK while creating a positive experience at every site visit.
If you enjoy variety in your working day, operating specialist equipment, meeting customers and working for a company that values its people, we'd love to hear from you.
Why Join Portable Space?
Portable Space is one of the UK's leading suppliers of portable accommodation, welfare units, storage containers and modular buildings. Our customers include construction companies, schools, retailers, local authorities and major national businesses.
