Job Description

£30,851 per annum (£13.18 per hour)

Monday - Saturday (5 days from 6) starting between 04:00 - 06:00 (45 hrs pw)

Join us as an 7.5T multidrop driver at our Fresh Direct Bicester Depot and you’ll enjoy a professional driving career with world-class, award-winning training and high operational standards. As part of the largest food service provider in the UK, we offer a level of security, stability and opportunity that’s hard to find. Together with some of the best benefits in the business. Things like heavily discounted high-quality food that could help halve your food shopping budget, standardised shifts with permanent Sundays off and world-class training and development.

To join us as a driver, you must hold a full UK driving license permitting 7.5 Tonne (Cat C1) vehicles, CPC card and Digital Tacho card. A clean license is preferred, but drivers with up to 6 penalty points may be considered (depending on the offences). Aside from the required driving qualifications, you’ll need to have a passion for driving.

You’ll start with a thorough induction and learn all the necessary practical skills from vehicle checks and safety at work to what good looks like. Then you’ll go out on the road with a Training Support Driver, to learn your route and get ready to go it alone. As a Multi-drop driver, you’ll be picking stock from the back of your vehicle at each stop, which keeps your day interesting and breaks the driving up. You will have 8-15 drops each day.

What’s really special about a driving career with us though, is the time and money we spend on helping you to develop and grow. In fact, we scooped the Training Award at the Motor Transport Awards in 2022. Our coaching and training opportunities could support you to develop into fleet management, planning and many more senior level roles. We also offer some pretty impressive benefits too:

• Generous annual leave with option to buy more
• Heavily discounted quality food, hotels and restaurants
• Reward & recognition schemes
• Pension scheme
• Charitable events to get involved with
• Cycle to work scheme
• A health and wellbeing programme, to look after you.

Join our valuable team of drivers and see how far you could go with us. ??????
