About [Employer hidden — view at passion-project.co.uk]

[Employer hidden] is a recognised market leader in UK and European logistics, providing dependable transport solutions. Our name is built on trust, precision, and performance — and our people are the foundation of that success.

We don’t just move goods; we deliver confidence, reliability, and service excellence. Our drivers are the face of that promise, and we treat them with the same respect and professionalism we give our clients.

The Role

We are expanding our professional driver team and seeking HGV Class 1 (C+E) Day Drivers who take pride in their work, value structure, and want a stable, well-managed environment.

You’ll enjoy predictable days, regular start times, and a professional operation that’s run the right way — where trucks are looked after, communication is clear, and you’re treated like part of a team, not a number.

What Makes [Employer hidden] Different
