Are you passionate about driving and making a positive impact on people’s lives? Join LF&E, one of the UK’s leading healthcare logistics providers. Since 2008, we’ve been a trusted partner in the pharmaceutical industry, delivering vital medication to homes and pharmacies on behalf of major corporate organisations and NHS Trusts, helping to improve the lives of patients across the country.

We are looking for a dedicated Same Day Delivery Driver to join our team, supporting the delivery of time-critical pharmaceutical products nationwide.
About The Role
This role involves delivering temperature-controlled medication nationwide, primarily to patients in their homes, as part of our same-day delivery service. This is not a standard driving role, same-day pharmaceutical deliveries are urgent, time-critical, and require a high level of flexibility.

- Ensuring deliveries are completed securely, accurately, and on time
