James Latham - the natural choice

James Latham is one of the UK's largest independent trade distributors of timber, panels, and decorative surfaces. As a long-established, family-owned business with history back to 1757, we believe our success is down to our employees and are proud to say that many of our team stay with us for decades. In a recent survey 86% said they would recommend James Latham as a great place to work.

We are currently recruiting for a Class 2/Cat C Driver to join our established team based in LOCATION.

The ideal candidate will be highly motivated and enthusiastic with prior experience working as Class 2/Cat C Driver. They will have multi drop experience and have excellent customer service skills. Flexibility is essential and early morning starts will be required. A forklift/combi-lift licence would be advantageous, but not essential. Experience working with timber and panels products is also preferable, but not essential.

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.
