HGV Driver (Days) - 10am Start

Please Note: Successful candidates hired for this role will be required to train and support the current operation in our Sawley Regional Distribution Centre DE72, for a period up to 12 months. We would then require you to transfer to our Bardon Distribution Centre in LE67. Please take this into consideration before completing your application

This is not just a driving job - it's about loading and unloading deliveries effectively, too. Unusually, your time is split between two key areas – professional driving together with loading and unloading deliveries.

So it’s a lot more physical than typical Driver roles as only 40% of the time is actually spent driving. It means making the best use of the space available by loading as much as possible onto your vehicle, all the time putting safety first.

We couldn’t operate without you, so we’ll pay for you to maintain the following:

• Driver Certificates of Professional Competence (CPC)

• Driver Medicals

• Driver Cards

Other companies might expect you to do the training in your own time, but we don’t. We’ll make sure you have that time in your working hours.

We do things our own way at Aldi. But whatever we're doing, we must be getting it right. With a wave of impressive sales figures behind us, we're opening new stores at lightning speed. And without our talented Drivers, there'd be no products in those stores.
