Whether you’ve just qualified as an HGV Class 2 driver or you’re an experienced driver seeking a better work life balance, Brakes is the place to build a career and feel like you truly make a difference.  In this role, you’ll be part of our dedicated transport team based in Harlow, supporting care homes and hospitals with the collection and delivery of fresh and frozen food.  We know that you love driving, so we will pre-load your vehicle for you onto cages so that you can easily make your deliveries and spend more time behind the wheel.  You’ll work on a 4 on / 4 off shift pattern - giving you plenty of time to enjoy your days off. 

All of our drivers receive a company induction and regular refreshers from our onsite Driver Trainers.  Our team is known for its friendly, positive culture, people join us for the company stability, but they stay for the opportunity to grow their careers.  Brakes are fully committed to helping you develop your skills in a safe, structured, and supportive environment. This is the perfect opportunity to either build your experience if you are newly qualified or as an experienced HGV Driver seeking the job stability of a market leader with a respected and reliable name in the food service industry.  

To be successful you’ll need a valid HGV Class 2 licence with no more than 6 points. A good eye for detail, strong spatial awareness, and the ability to stay calm under pressure will help you thrive in this busy but rewarding role.

In addition to a competitive monthly salary, 23 days annual leave and company pension, you can also look forward to the following benefits:

  • Wagestream – Access to an app that gives you early access to your earned salary and supports financial wellbeing
