Are you an experienced and reliable HGV Driver looking to join a supportive, hardworking team? Want a role where your professionalism on the road really makes a difference every day? This could be the opportunity for you.

We’re looking for a customer-focused, safety-conscious HGV Driver to join the team at our Watford branch. This is a hands-on role at the heart of our operation, delivering building materials safely, efficiently and with great service — every time.

  • Operating a crane (HIAB) safely and in line with regulations
  • Completing daily vehicle checks and defect reports
  • Keeping your vehicle clean, safe and well presented
  • Providing excellent customer service on every delivery
  • Completing delivery paperwork and handling returns correctly
  • Supporting the wider branch and transport team when required

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.
