HGV Class C Driver

About the Role

At Solus, every role is critical in delivering quality repairs for our customers and keeping our workshops running smoothly. As we invest in our future and strengthen operational capabilities, we’re looking for a HGV Class C Driver—an individual who thrives in the pace and pressure of an accident repair environment, with a strong sense of organisation, accuracy, and teamwork.

This role is perfect for someone who takes pride in excellence and supporting colleagues to keep our customers moving efficiently.

Responsibilities

As an HGV Class C Driver, you will:

  • Collect and deliver vehicles before and after repairs, ensuring timely delivery to meet customer deadlines.
  • Work closely with the team under the guidance of your Transport Controller.
  • Handle customer interactions from collection to delivery, ensuring exceptional service.
  • Complete paperwork including:
    • Recording any damage (accident-related or pre-existing) on vehicles.
    • Taking digital photographs of damage and obtaining customer signatures.
  • Report defects (identified during loading/unloading or during handover) to the Production Manager.
  • Reference and file all completed jobs per company procedures.

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.
