What You'll Be Doing?

As a Class 2 Delivery Driver, you’ll be at the heart of our operations, ensuring smooth, efficient processes while upholding our reputation for exceptional service. Your key responsibilities will include:

• You will like to be an early riser. Your shift will generally start at around 4.00am on a 4 on 2 off rota, so it’s an early start.
• You will also enjoy plenty of autonomy. As a driver, you’ll be given delivery notes (or an electronic device), from which you’ll accurately pick the orders(either prior to leaving or out on your route) and load your vehicle with bakery products.
• Your knowledge of basic vehicle maintenance mechanical knowledge (in order to be able to relay faults on defect forms) and transport legislation will be key, for example, Driver Hours, working time directive, and the Highway Code for a smooth and safe day.
• Your route for the day will then be loaded into your onboard computer – and you’re off!
• Our drivers deliver to multiple customers each day (who are like family to us), so we need you to provide a quality service that develops strong relationships, exceeds their expectations, and on occasion, be able to manage difficult conversations in a calm and professional manner, as well as acting as an ambassador for our brand with everyone and living our values.
• You will work a defined 4 on 2 off rota pattern including weekends. That’s 43 hours a week, although a typical week can sometimes be less than that. All of which will hopefully help you to plan your life around work more easily.

At Warburtons, you are more than a driver! No more spending the day looking for things. You load your own vehicle, so you can find everything a little biteasier and you’ll be in charge of making sure the orders for your customers are correct as you pick accurately and in full from your delivery notes or electronic device. So, if you’re looking for a role where you’remore hands-on with your deliveries and keeping the nation’s eggs in soldiers, then join us and be proud to be heading in the right direction.

• Full UK Driving Licence with Class C entitlement
• Full Driver CPC
• Able to commute to Warburtons Enfield temporarily while the new depot is completed
