We’re the Huws Gray Group – home to a family of trusted brands including Huws Gray, Huws Gray Plant & Tool Hire, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI, and Anglia Tool Centre. Across the UK, our branches support local communities with everything they need for building, improving, and creating – we couldn’t do it without our people and that’s where you come in!
We’re now looking for a Yard/Warehouse Operative / Relief HGV Driver to join the team at our South Kirkby branch. If you enjoy working outdoors, being part of a practical team, and delivering excellent customer service, we’d love to hear from you.
What you’ll be doing:
As a Yard/Warehouse Operative / Relief HGV Driver, you’ll play a vital role in the day-to-day running of the yard and making deliveries when required. Here’s what the job involves:
1. Helping customers find what they need – offering friendly, practical advice and sharing your knowledge of our products
2. Handling deliveries – checking in goods, storing them safely and keeping everything organised
3. Loading and unloading vehicles – working closely with the branch and driving teams to keep everything moving
4. Making occasional local deliveries – when cover is needed (e.g. holidays or absences) in our HGV vehicles
5. Looking after our yard – keeping it safe, tidy and secure for our customers and colleagues
We’re happy to explore flexible working options. Feel free to chat with us about it during the interview. While we might not be able to meet every request, we’ll always listen with an open mind—and there’s no judgment in asking.
What you’ll bring:
We’re not expecting you to know it all from day one – that’s what we’re here for.
We’ll give you the training and support to help you hit the ground running. What really matters is that you’ve got a great attitude and you’re ready to pitch in and be part of the team. Got a forklift licence? That’s a bonus – but it’s definitely not a dealbreaker, however you will need a Class 2 licence for this role.
What’s in it for you:
We believe great work should be recognised and rewarded. Here’s what you can expect:
6. 23 days’ holiday, plus bank holidays (31 days per year)
7. Company bonus scheme, based on performance
8. Contributory pension and life assurance
9. Discounts onhigh street retailers, supermarkets, restaurants, gyms and cinemas
10. Colleague discount across our group brands
