Driver Technicians

Make Every Delivery Matter and join us as a Driver Technician

Not all driving jobs are the same! Some just deliver parcels; this one delivers independence, dignity, and care.

Working for our Community Equipment Service means that every journey you make helps someone live safely and comfortably in their own home. From installing essential equipment to offering reassurance at the doorstep—you’ll be making a real difference, every single day.

What You’ll Be Doing

• Delivering, installing, and demonstrating life-changing equipment in people’s home
• Providing a respectful, supportive service to residents and carers
• Using your practical skills to assemble, adjust and maintain equipment
• Working as part of a team that genuinely cares about the community

What We’re Looking For

You’re not just a driver—you’re someone who:

• Takes pride in helping others
• Communicates with empathy and professionalism
• Can problem-solve on the go
• Works well independently and in a team
• A full driving licence is essential.

Join a supportive team where your wellbeing matters, benefit from flexible ways of working, and enjoy a great range of benefits including staff discounts and access to the Local Government Pension Scheme.”
