Plant experience is not essential and full training will be provided.

  • You will support your Tool Hire Manager in managing all aspects of their department and business.

What experience do I need:

You will have a Class 2 driving licence, up to date CPC records and 12 months+ driving experience.  You’ll be confident in dealing with our customers, building new relationships and developing existing ones. You will be safety focussed, ensuring work is completed in a safe and professional manner. Our drivers are passionate about what we do and delivering for our customers, we want like-minded drivers to join our team with the same mindset and ambition.

We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves.
