Driver- Multi-drop – Basingstoke

The chances are you’ll have eaten our food, so why not share our success and come and work for us? We’re a great company to work for and we have permanent opportunities for drivers to become part of the transport department in our Basingstoke Depot.

We’re a leading wholesale food distributor covering the whole of the UK, the preferred supplier for over 60,000 customers and our business is still growing.

What does this mean for you?

It means you can expect an excellent working environment, job security, fantastic development opportunities, and a great salary and benefits package. Not only this, being a multi-drop role, it will help you keep fit as you’re often out of the cab, meeting customers, and being the face of our business. Our customers rely on you to feed their customers so the arrival of our lorry is always a welcome sight.

We value all our employees and over half of our workforces have more than 5 years’ service! Our drivers say: “The best thing about working for Bidfood is being on the road and working with a fantastic customer base!”

A bit about the role

You’ll be delivering food and non-food products to our customers in multiple locations throughout the day. The route can vary on a day-to-day basis but there will also be regular customers, meaning there’s a good mix of both variety and familiarity, which our drivers appreciate.

This role will cover 5 days out of 7. This means that you will work some Saturdays, but not all, currently one Saturday every six weeks. This is worked on a rota basis with our other drivers.

A bit about you

You’ll possess a Category C LGV Licence. You’ll also enjoy a challenge and care about helping our customers succeed, taking pride in being the face of our company to so many people every day.

What we can offer you

Very competitive salary package with additional potential earnings
33 days holiday
Subsidised canteen
Free parking
Exclusive range of over 4,000 high street discounts
Personal accident insurance
Healthcare cash plan
Pension and life assurance
Training and ongoing development as well as free CPC training
