• Maintain accurate tachograph records and documentation.
• Be flexible with your working hours (shifts operate between 2am and +pm, Monday to Friday with varying times on Saturdays).
Helping you feel good.
We want you to love coming to work, feeling healthy, happy and valued. That’s why we’ve developed a benefits package with you in mind. These include:
Private Healthcare (after qualifying period) option to add family members, free gym membership & discounted family memberships, full uniform and PPE (Personal Protective Equipment). Paid holiday entitlement. Enhanced pay rates, night time rates between 7pm & 7am and overtime rates after 37.5hrs. Free onsite parking, CPC required top up hours provided, no multi drop work (max 5 customers with 7.5-ton vehicle) and driving new Mercedes Benz trucks with tail lifts. There are no requirements for nights away from home. Opportunities for career progression and annual salary reviews.
Join Nuffield Health and create the future you want, today.
