As a Drivers Mate, you will assist with the delivery of large household goods to residential properties.

You will also receive full training to become a Banksman, ensuring you are positioned safely outside the vehicle whenever the lorry is reversing to guide the driver and maintain site safety. Full training will be provided and this forms an important part of the Drivers Mate role.
Following a successful application, all new Drivers Mate employees must attend a mandatory induction day before starting work.
Applicants must be able to commute reliably to Skelmersdale.
Please note that drug and alcohol testing may be carried out at any time at the client's discretion. A drug test will also be completed during the induction process.
