A Look into the Role

The impact you make with Henderson Group goes far beyond your day-to-day deliveries. As part of a business that places our communities at the heart of everything we do, you’ll represent a brand recognised for excellence in employment and a genuine commitment to service. You’ll play a vital role in delivering a first-class service to our network of SPAR, EUROSPAR, VIVO, and VIVOXTRA stores across Northern Ireland, ensuring every load reaches its destination safely, on time, and with the professionalism and positive attitude that defines Henderson Wholesale.

This is a challenging but rewarding role that offers variety, stability, and the satisfaction of being home every night. Most of your driving will take place within Northern Ireland, allowing you to build strong relationships with our store teams while enjoying the consistency of local routes and no overnight stays. Every day brings new journeys and the pride of knowing your work helps keep shelves stocked and communities served.

You’ll take pride in the presentation and performance of your vehicle, carrying out daily safety checks, maintaining cleanliness, and handling goods with care to ensure they arrive in perfect condition. Customer service sits at the heart of what you do, you’ll be the face of Henderson Wholesale on the road, representing our brand with professionalism, courtesy, and reliability.

Reasons to use Rodeo

I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?

Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.

Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.

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.
