Logistics done differently.
Do you want to become an HGV Driver but don’t have the funds to train? Have you heard about the driver training throughout the XPO Training Academy? We at XPO, have developed an internal program to take novice car drivers, through to full-fledged, Cat CE HGV drivers within 6-9 months.
And once you have completed the training you will potentially walk straight into a job working for us! Not only this, but we have on site trainers who will take you from being a newly qualified driver with no experience, to a highly trained, professional driver.
Pay, Benefits And More
We are offering employment from day one of your training program and in approximately 6-9 months’ time, we will support you to enter a new profession (dependant on the speed at which you train). You will become a Class 1 driver on our PAM contract, based at our Ilkeston site. The site operates a Monday to Friday, day shift pattern with nights away, transporting building products across the UK. Initially we are offering a training rate of £26,436.80 per year, rising significantly upon acquiring your CE licence.
