HGV Driver - Class 2
Greenford, London
About Us
Here at Suma, we’ve been doing things a bit differently for over 40 years. Not only in our mission to supply everything vegetarian, ethical and sustainable, but also in how we run our successful business.
Suma is a worker co-operative; a business owned and run by nearly 200 members who work here. We’re a group of ordinary people who have built a business on principles of integrity and equality. Suma workers work together collectively to set the direction of the business - there are no shareholders and no traditional ‘bosses’. Everyone at Suma gets paid the same wage, takes personal and equal responsibility and does a range of different jobs each week.
We are currently looking for an HGV Driver to join us on a full-time basis for a fixed-term contract of 12 months. A route to permanent employment is available through gaining membership of our co-operative.
The Benefits
- Salary of £17.24 per hour (expenses as extra)
- Generous holiday entitlement – 38 days for a full-time worker
- Staff discount on goods Suma sells
- Overtime can be taken as pay or time off in lieu
- Access to occupational sick pay
This is a fantastic opportunity for a dedicated HGV Driver to join our co-operative organisation as we deliver nourishing organic vegetarian food across the UK.
You will discover a supportive and passionate team that believes in fairness, sustainability, and ethical business practices, working together to create a workplace where collaboration thrives, every contribution is valued, and your efforts make a real difference.
So, if you want to be part of a company that is very much driven by their ethics, read on and apply today!
