Full job description

Casual Class 1 HGV Driver – Wagon & Drag | £25 per Hour

Location: Thornborough, Buckinghamshire, MK18 2DY
Job type: Casual / Part-time
Pay: £25.00 per hour
Typical workload: Approximately 40 driving dates per year

The Racing Bug (UK) Ltd is looking for an experienced and reliable Category C+E Class 1 HGV Driver with proven wagon and drag / drawbar trailer experience.

You will drive our company-owned 18-tonne Mercedes Actros rigid truck and drawbar trailer, delivering and collecting specialist equipment from major motorsport, corporate and promotional events throughout the UK.

This is a highly flexible casual role, ideally suited to an experienced driver who is available for regular weekday work as well as Sunday collections.

Typical working pattern

Most events involve two separate return journeys:

Outbound delivery: Usually Thursday or Friday, approximately 08:00–17:00
Inbound collection: Usually Sunday, approximately 14:30–22:00
All shifts start and finish at our base near MK18 2DY
Occasional additional days may be available by mutual agreement

Most dates are planned well in advance, although some bookings may arise at shorter notice.

Applicants must be able to work regular Thursday or Friday daytime shifts, as well as Sunday afternoon and evening shifts.

Priority will be given to drivers who can commit to at least 10 complete events per year, with each event normally consisting of an outbound delivery and a separate return collection.

Key responsibilities

Drive an 18-tonne Mercedes Actros rigid vehicle with a drawbar trailer
Deliver and collect specialist equipment at events throughout the UK
Complete vehicle safety checks and report any defects
Ensure loads are transported safely and securely
Follow drivers’ hours, Working Time Directive and road transport regulations
Represent the company professionally when attending customer and event sites
Assist with straightforward vehicle, trailer and load-related duties where required
Drive company-provided cars or vans on some outward or return legs

This is primarily a driving role. Heavy manual loading is not normally required, although a practical and helpful approach is expected.

Essential requirements

Valid UK Category C+E driving licence
Demonstrable experience driving a wagon and drag, drawbar trailer or equivalent combination
Good knowledge of drivers’ hours and transport compliance
Availability for both weekday and weekend event dates
Reliable, punctual and able to commit to agreed bookings
Comfortable travelling to event venues throughout the UK
Able to work independently and take responsibility for company vehicles and equipment

Desirable experience

Event, exhibition, motorsport or promotional transport experience
Experience driving Mercedes Actros vehicles
Experience manoeuvring large vehicles at busy or restricted event sites
Experience with specialist, valuable or unusual loads
Mechanical, workshop, agricultural or practical maintenance skills

Pay and benefits

£25.00 per hour driving rate
Guaranteed minimum payment for shorter driving days
Dates usually provided well in advance
Flexible casual arrangement
Company vehicles provided
Potential for additional work with our event-hosting team
Potential workshop, maintenance and farm work for suitably experienced applicants

About the role

Our equipment attends major events across the UK, so reliability is essential. Once a driver has committed to an event, we need them to be available for both the outward delivery and the return collection wherever possible.

This role will not suit applicants who are only available at weekends. Please apply only if you can regularly work weekday delivery dates as well as Sunday collections.

Your Category C+E driving experience
Your wagon and drag or drawbar trailer experience
Your usual weekday and Sunday availability
Approximately how many events you could commit to each year
Your distance from MK18 2DY
