Overview
We operate the UK’s ONLY flexible multi-temp, shared customer delivery logistics network. We buy, warehouse, pick and distribute products to the nation’s best loved food and drink brands every single day and provide the best experience to our customers.
Our LGV Drivers do more than a ‘driving job’. Our Drivers are the ‘face’ of our organisation, leaving everyone they meet with a positive impression of them and Best Food Logistics.

* Deliver products to our customers, intact, on time and in full as per the delivery schedule
* Completion of documentation such as delivery notes, credits and collections

* Ensure LGV is maintained and safe e.g. safety checks and completion of defect book
* Collect all empty equipment from the customer
* Cooperate fully with the driver debrief procedure and undertake any other duties as directed by the Shift Management team
This is a demanding but rewarding role which involves manual handling and multi-drop deliveries. You should therefore be confident to drive and deliver to various outlets throughout the UK.
