Job Introduction
At Tarmac, who you are matters. We want to get to know you. If you share our values, take pride in a job well done, enjoy working collaboratively, and are ambitious to make things better, we’d love to hear from you.
We are currently recruiting for an HGV Driver to join our National Road Planing (NRP) team. Although you will be based at our Rand office near Market Rasen in Lincolnshire, this role requires flexibility as you will need to go where the work is, staying overnight if and when necessary. You will be expected to travel nationally.
You will be contracted to 40-hours per week, but your work pattern may vary. Some weeks you may be working days, other times evenings and sometimes nights and we need any prospective candidates to be accommodating to these types of working hours and be flexible; sometimes at short notice.
Prospective candidates are eligible for overtime, as and when it is available, which is paid at a premium and any weekend & bank holiday working also comes at a higher rate when available.
At Tarmac, we are committed to creating a dynamic, inclusive environment and welcome applications from individuals with a variety of backgrounds.
What You’ll Be Doing
As our HGV Driver, you’ll report into the Transport Manager and play a key role in day-to-day operations. Your responsibilities will include:
- Carrying out regular checks on lorries and trailers, reporting defects promptly to the fitter and office
- Ensuring all journeys are completed safely, legally and in line with driving regulations
- Planning journeys in accordance with STGO Category 2 movement orders to ensure planers arrive on site for the correct shift start times
- Liaising closely with the Planer Foreman and Operatives to ensure effective teamwork on site
- Transporting planed materials from site to designated tipping locations
- Accurately recording planing loads and tip details on load transfer tickets and returning these to the office
- Complying with company standards and procedures and maintaining regular communication with the NRP Transport Manager
Reasons to use Rodeo
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.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
This role involves day and night working, weekend working, and occasional staying away during the week, depending on operational requirements.
What We’re Looking For
We’re seeking a reliable and safety-focused HGV Driver who brings:
- Previous HGV driving experience
- A strong understanding of health and safety requirements
- A professional, team-focused approach to working on site and with colleagues
Experience of site work involving road planers would be beneficial, but it’s not essential — what matters most is the right attitude and a commitment to safe, high-quality delivery.
