About the role

You will drive a modern tractor unit with a curtainsider or box trailer on planned long-distance routes. Most trips start on Monday morning and end on Friday, with rest periods taken in the cab or at agreed parking areas. Loads are mainly palletised consumer goods and building products for distribution centres. A planning team in the depot sets the routes and stays in contact with you during each trip. The role suits an experienced driver who wants steady weekly work and weekends at home.


What you’ll do

  • Drive planned long-distance routes safely and within agreed delivery windows
  • Carry out the daily vehicle check and report any defects before departure
  • Check the load, count pallets and secure the cargo with straps and edge protection
  • Keep delivery notes, CMR documents and digital tachograph records complete and accurate
  • Plan breaks and rest periods in line with EU driving-time rules
  • Inform the planning team about delays, damage or changes at the delivery point

What you’ll bring

  • Valid CE driving licence and driver qualification card (Code 95)
  • At least 2 years of CE driving experience on long-distance routes
  • Personal digital tachograph card
  • Basic German or English for communication with planners and customers
  • Valid EU passport or ID card, or a valid work permit for Germany
