About The Role
This HGV Class 1 Driver role with Rapier Employment is based in Newark-on-Trent, offering £19.40 to £22.66 hourly on a full-time contract. Duties involve delivering to RDCs, plus store drops requiring tail lift and MHE unloading, so some manual handling applies. Shift patterns suit the candidate, with day starts between 0400 and 0900, or night starts from 1500 to 2100. Applicants need a C+E licence held for at least twelve months, alongside three months commercial experience for insurance purposes. Vehicle checks and safe load handling form part of daily tasks. Rates are PAYE, with higher pay at weekends.
