As a FLT Driver you'll play a key role in keeping our fast-paced FMCG operation running smoothly by ensuring materials and finished products are stored, moved and supplied safely and efficiently.

Ideally, you'll be someone who enjoys working in a busy warehouse environment, takes pride in working safely and accurately, and is comfortable working at height. You'll be proactive, reliable and enjoy working as part of a team to keep operations running efficiently.
