HIAB HGV Driver - Long-Term Rail Infrastructure Contract
Our existing contract with one of the UK's leading rail infrastructure companies, providing specialist delivery equipment to support essential engineering and maintenance works across the rail network, is continuing to grow. As a result, we are looking to strengthen our team with experienced, safety-conscious HIAB HGV Drivers for both day and night shifts.
What We're Looking For
- Experienced HIAB Operators (ALLMI certification preferred)
- Strong safety awareness and commitment to safe working practices
- Reliable, punctual, and professional attitude
- Ability to work as part of a team supporting rail engineering and construction operations
- Flexibility with working hours to meet project requirements
Why This Opportunity Stands Out
- Day and night shifts available, with start times typically from 06:00 or 20:00, offering flexibility to suit your availability.
- Operate a modern, FORS Gold-accredited fleet equipped with high-quality Palfinger cranes and hook attachments.
- Enjoy predominantly single-run deliveries: load up, deliver to rail maintenance sites, and return, all within a typical shift.
- Regular work available throughout the week, with additional weekend and overtime opportunities.
- 8-hour minimum guaranteed pay per shift, ensuring consistent earnings even if work finishes early.
- Excellent pay rates from £21.00 to £30.30 per hour.
- Location: Ruislip, West London, with secure on-site parking available.
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.
