Are you a Class 1 Trunker Driver at the top of your game?
Working alongside the Distribution Teams, you’ll drive in one of the most professional fleets in the country. Our vehicles have state-of-the-art telematics, sat nav, and tracking systems. Our teams are dedicated to ensuring our depots and hubs are ready to deliver great quality and freshness to millions of people every day.
Join us and be proud to be heading in the right direction.
Essential Ingredients
To join the Warburtons family, you’ll need a LGV Cat C+E driving licence with no more than 6 points. You’ll also have a good knowledge of transport legislation and tachographs, be reliable, responsible, and used to working in a trunking role.
The Recipe
- Be supported with an induction, support from in-house driver training teams, SAFED, and ongoing CPC. Your Driver CPC training is in work hours too, not outside of them.
- You’ll work set contracted hours on a night rota, all of which will hopefully help you to plan your life around work more easily.
- Your knowledge of basic vehicle maintenance, mechanical knowledge (in order to relay faults on defect forms), and transport legislation will be key, for example, Driver Hours, WTD, and the Highway Code for a smooth and safe day.
- Enjoy plenty of freedom. As a driver, you’ll assist in the loading and unloading of your trailer – working safely is a key priority for us, so you’ll be compliant with Health and Safety, quality, food safety, and accident reporting procedures to achieve an accident-free workplace – and you’re off!
- As you won’t only be delivering to our own depots but also customer RDC’s, you’ll provide a quality service, develop strong relationships, exceed their expectations, and on occasion be able to manage confrontation in a calm and professional manner, as well as acting as an ambassador for our brand with everyone, while living our values.
