FLT Driver / Warehouse operative

Novara People are recruiting for an FLT Driver / Warehouse Operative to join a well-established Brighouse-based manufacturer supplying specialist oils, lubricants and associated products to customers across the UK and internationally.

Some days you could spend the majority of the day driving and making deliveries, other days will be completely warehouse based, and some will be a mixture of both.
