About The Role
Rapier Employment seeks a Class 1 Driver for its Swindon depot, offering £15.71 to £16.34 hourly on a full-time, temporary basis. Shifts run Monday through Thursday, with start windows of 06:00–07:00 or 15:00–17:00; afternoon slots dominate. New passes are welcomed, and complete training is supplied. Duties involve loading correct parts, completing two or three trunking runs daily between Swindon and Oxford, plus thorough vehicle and trailer inspections.

This suits someone seeking steady work with a supportive employer.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
