Want to become an HGV Driver but don’t have your HGV licence yet?
New for 2027, Tru7 is launching a brand-new HGV Driver Apprenticeship, giving you the opportunity to earn while you learn, gain your HGV licence and build real-world experience across our transport operations.
This is more than just getting your licence.
You’ll spend time working alongside experienced Tru7 drivers, learning how our transport operation works and developing the skills needed to become a professional HGV driver.
What will you learn?
The apprenticeship is an 8-month programme, with your HGV licence gained within the first three months.
You’ll gain experience across different areas of our transport operation, including:
- Tippers
- Bulkers
- Mixers
- Plant & Low Loaders
- Vehicle checks and driver safety
- Load safety and handling
- Route planning and customer service
- Driver hours and record keeping
- Safe and fuel-efficient driving
- Transport technology
- Accident reporting and emergency procedures
You’ll also be paired with an experienced Tru7 driver buddy/mentor, giving you the opportunity to learn from drivers who know the job inside out.
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.
