Job Overview
We are seeking a dedicated, reliable and experienced removals driver to join our growing team. We are after someone who is hard working and has experience packing, stacking, wrapping furniture, basic dismantling / reassembling skills, completing basic paperwork / inventories and taking the lead on jobs to ensure the other crew members know what they need to be doing as and when required.
The work will entail some early morning starts during Monday to Friday with minimum hours guaranteed and some very occasional Saturdays to accommodate heavy workloads (prior notice would be given and availability checked before any work booked for weekends).
However most days you will start at 07.30 and aim to be finished around 17.00/17.30, but due to the nature of the industry, timings will vary and unfortunately this could mean some days will be a lot longer than others.
The candidate must be aware that this is a physically demanding role, the job involves driving, loading household / office effects, unloading, storage works and the occasional night away (hotels will be provided no sleeping in cabs).
We are after people who can apply a professional approach to their work, have a pleasant manner with customers, who are hard working, happy to work as a team and are easy going and most importantly are reliable!
Hourly rate is negotiable and would be subject to experience, we also offer a daily bonus on top of the hourly rate as a further incentive to do the daily tasks correctly without avoidable mistakes.
