Due to our continued growth and success, we at Hewicks Haulage have fantastic opportunities for HGV Class 1 Drivers to join our family-run team.
Successful applicants will be required to work a full Monday to Friday shift pattern, which will include 4–5 nights out per week. On occasion, there may also be a requirement for a run-in on a Saturday or a run-off on a Sunday if work dictates. The Transport Team will always discuss and agree any weekend cover requirements with you in advance.
We operate a modern fleet of eye-catching Scania trucks, all equipped with fridges, microwaves, storage lockers, and sat navs.
The role primarily involves delivering animal feed in bulk liquid form. Full in-house training will be provided on the use of our road tankers and vac tanks. We also undertake a variety of curtain-side and container work, meaning there is an opportunity to start within these areas and progress into tanker work.
As a company, we offer:
- A competitive guaranteed salary
- Overtime paid after 50 hours
- Enhanced rates for weekends and Bank Holidays
- £31 per night out
- Bonus scheme
Our drivers earn, on average, in the region of £50,000 over a standard five-day working week. Pay is made on a four-weekly basis.
In addition, we offer:
- Monthly bonus prize draw
- Cycle to Work scheme
- Auto-enrolment workplace pension
After 6 months' service, you will gain access to our Bupa private health insurance scheme. Following 12 months’ service, you will become a member of our Employee Ownership Trust, which includes a tax-free annual bonus.
If you are a hard-working, dedicated individual with a can-do attitude, we would love to hear from you. Please send in your CV to apply.
Please note:
- The role is based at our depot/yard in Cockfield, Bury St Edmunds. Travel is throughout the UK; this is a national driving role only (no international travel).
