About the role

You will be responsible for local deliveries and collections in the Leeds area, dealing with food, carrying out quality and temperature checks on the products and working in line with food safety and health and safety standards.

You may also be expected to work in a chilled environment. You will be responsible for ensuring your vehicle is legally compliant and safe, whilst maintaining a fuel-efficient standard of driving.

We’ll provide you with the great training and support you need to see your career rise.

• You have a full, valid driving licence (vocational HGV licence not required)
• You’re comfortable with handling food
• You have pride in the quality of the products you will be providing customers
• You’re experienced in following processes and procedures and working in a fast-paced environment where timescales and targets are important
