Job Description

Strong back, sharp eyes on the load sheet: that is what a container unpacking yard in Prospecton wants. If you like clear targets and knowing where you stand, this is for you.

You'll report in Prospecton. Relocation is not covered for this one. Start is planned for the beginning of next month.

What your day looks like

  • Ride with the driver and carry goods into customers' premises
  • Assemble or place furniture where the customer asks
  • Check goods received against the delivery note and flag shorts
  • Sweep the bay and clear shrink-wrap after each loading
  • Guide trucks reversing into the bay with hand signals
  • Load trucks from the load sheet in drop order, last stop first

You'll need

  • Able to lift and carry heavy items all day
  • Willing to travel on routes that return late
  • Honest; you will be handling customer goods and cash-on-delivery slips
  • No criminal record

Helpful, not essential

  • Basic furniture assembly skills
  • A Code 8 or Code 10 licence (a route to becoming a driver)
  • Speaking more than one local language for customer drops

What's in it for you

  • Route-completion incentives in busy months
  • Meal allowance on long-route days
  • Uniform and safety shoes provided

Applying, step by step

  1. Read the "What you need" list above. If you tick most of it, go ahead and apply.
  2. Keep copies of these ready to send: CV noting any loading, moving or delivery work, police clearance if you already have one plus clear copy of your ID with a certification stamp.
  3. Send your details with the form below. Add one or two lines about similar work you've done.
  4. If you're shortlisted you'll hear from us within 5 working days, usually by phone.

Your application joins the How2Apply talent pool for this role, and we put shortlisted people forward to employers hiring in and around Prospecton.

How2Apply never charges you to apply, for training, for uniforms or for a "placement fee". If anyone asks you for money, it is a scam.

How to stand out

  • If you are learning to drive, mention it. Depots like to grow assistants into drivers.
  • Keep your CV to one page with your phone number big and clear. Depot managers phone, they seldom email.
