Job Description

A job where you are in the driving seat!

As the face of One Stop out on the road, our HGV drivers get the opportunity to meet and talk to different colleagues at stores. That�s why this role is about much more than just driving: it's about helping others and delivering great service, with a smile.

No two shifts are ever the same, for most of the day you�ll feel like your own boss, out on the road delivering to our stores, but there is always a team of managers and colleagues back at the distribution centre ready to support you when you need them.

You�ll meet great people, learn new things and be part of a specialist, diverse team, where everyone is welcome.

You will be responsible for

  • Professionally representing the One Stop brand whilst on UK roads
  • Ensuring our products reach our stores on time and in good condition
  • Being out on the road but also working collaboratively with colleagues and representing One Stop to everyone you meet
  • Driving safely, responsibly and within the law
  • Collecting as well as delivering, supporting your distribution centre by moving trailers and keeping vehicles fuelled

You will need

  • To be passionate about delivering great customer service
  • Friendly, approachable and reliable
  • Able to adhere to WTD and EU Drivers Hours
  • To become a One Stop Driver, you'll need a full HGV 1 (C+E) EU license with no more than six penalty points, needs a valid DQC and a Driver Card.
  • Minimum 1 year of HGV Class 1 driving experience required
