£35,000 per year + Overnight Allowance + Annual Bonus + Private Healthcare
Deliver to some of the UK’s biggest festivals, concerts and live events.
Glass Half Full Wholesale is one of the UK’s leading drinks wholesalers, supplying alcoholic beverages and soft drinks to major music festivals, outdoor events, stadiums, venues and pop-up events across the country.
We’re looking for a professional, reliable and motivated Class 2 HGV Driver to join our growing operations team.
This is more than a standard driving role. Driving is your primary responsibility, but when you’re not on the road you’ll also support our warehouse operation, helping prepare stock and vehicles for upcoming events. We work as one team, and everyone plays a vital role in delivering exceptional service to our customers.
No two weeks are ever the same. One day you could be delivering to a major music festival, the next preparing stock for a large venue or helping load vehicles for a nationwide event.
If you enjoy variety, working as part of a close-knit team and want to be involved behind the scenes at some of the UK’s biggest live events, we’d love to hear from you.
The Role
As a Class 2 HGV Driver, you’ll be responsible for delivering products safely and professionally to customers throughout the UK while supporting our warehouse operation between deliveries.
Our business follows the live events calendar.
During our busy summer season (typically May to September), there will be occasional weekend work and overnight stays to support festival operations. Throughout the quieter winter months, the role becomes far more predictable, with predominantly Monday to Friday working and greater flexibility for annual leave.
Typically, overnight stays average around one night per week, with occasional additional nights during the peak festival season.

- Communicate effectively with our transport team and customers.
- Carry out occasional trailer movements where required.
- Represent Glass Half Full Wholesale professionally at all customer sites.
Warehouse Support
When not driving, you’ll support our warehouse operation by:
- Picking and preparing customer orders.
- Loading and unloading vehicles.
- Assisting with goods in and goods out.
- Operating warehouse equipment safely.
- Maintaining a clean, organised and safe working environment.
- Supporting the wider operations team to ensure customer orders are delivered accurately and on time.
What We’re Looking For
Essential
- Valid Class 2 (Category C) HGV Licence.
- Driver CPC Qualification.
- Digital Tachograph Card.
- Professional, reliable and positive attitude.
- Excellent communication skills.
- Strong work ethic with a willingness to support the wider team.
