Warehouse Operative/ Relief Driver 3.5t - 7.5t

Warehouse Operative / Relief Driver (3.5T - 7.5T)

Location: High Wycombe

Hours: Full-time, Monday to Friday, with flexibility as required

Salary: £29,120 to £31,200 dependent on experience

This full-time role in High Wycombe combines warehouse duties with driving cover. Based primarily in the depot, responsibilities include managing stock, preparing orders and supporting dispatch. When needed, the postholder delivers goods using 3.5T vehicles, or a 7.5T lorry where properly licensed. Working hours run Monday to Friday, with some flexibility expected. Applications are welcomed from candidates holding a C1 licence and Driver CPC, though prior experience with 3.5T vans is equally valued. Reliability, a practical approach and comfort working alone or alongside colleagues are essential. Salary ranges from £29,120 to £31,200, reflecting experience. The position suits someone seeking variety across both driving and warehousing tasks.
