About The Role

Rapier Employment seeks an HGV Class 1 Driver for a busy Bradford client, offering £18.57–£30.01 per hour on a full-time, temporary basis. This ongoing placement involves delivering to RDCs and stores, with manual handling of cages and tail lift work required. Candidates must perform vehicle checks and accept shifts including one weekend day.

Day patterns start between 04:00 and 09:00, while night shifts begin from 15:00 to 21:00. Pay reaches overtime rates after eight hours, with a minimum of eleven paid hours from Friday to Monday. Reliable, physically capable drivers with valid Class 1 licences should apply for this long-term role.

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.
