Job Description:
We seek an experienced and reliable HGV Class 1 Driver living in commuting distance of Radlett, Herts to join our logistics team and be trained to be a Car Transporter Driver. We are less than 10 miles away from the centre of Watford, St. Albans and Hemel Hempstead.
This is a unique opportunity to join a high-end Vehicle delivery service offering collection and deliveries of prestige motor vehicles across the UK in enclosed 6-car transporters and learn all about Car Transportation at full pay while learning on the job.
Working on behalf of our blue-chip high-profile clients, you will be using your enclosed car transporter, assigned to you, to carry out your daily duties of vehicle deliveries and collections. Your salary of £38k will be augmented by occasional overtime with nights out.

Our Drivers typically earn up to £44K. European trips are available for those who want it but this is totally optional and not a requirement of employment.
The successful candidate will be responsible for the safe and efficient delivery of new cars to various locations via 6-car enclosed truck, assigned only to you.
