Your duties will include:

• Driving Class 2 HGV vehicles to and from work sites
• Supporting line marking and surface treatment work
• Loading, unloading and preparing equipment
• Carrying out practical outdoor duties on live sites
• Working safely as part of an experienced crew
• Following site procedures and health and safety requirements
• Working a mixture of day shifts and night shifts
• Staying away from home when required for operational projects
• Driving other company vehicles where your licence allows

What we are looking for

You will need:

• A valid UK Category C Class 2 driving licence
• Driver CPC qualification
• Digital Tachograph Card
• Previous Class 2 driving experience
• Good physical fitness
• A flexible approach to working hours and locations
• Confidence working outdoors in different weather conditions
• A reliable and safety-focused attitude
• The ability to pass random drug and alcohol testing

Previous experience in highways, construction, line marking, road maintenance or surface treatment would be useful.

The most important things are reliability, flexibility and being comfortable with hands-on site work as well as driving.
