Job Description

HGV Class 1 Driver (4/4 Nights)

Are you a professional HGV driver looking for a company that trusts you to get the job done? The Lockwood Group is a dynamic, family-run business with over 50 years of experience, and we’re seeking reliable Class 1 drivers to join our team.

This isn't a job where you're constantly chased for updates. We believe in providing you with a consistent workload, the latest technology, and the independence you need to succeed. As a DVSA Earned Recognition operator, we take pride in our modern, well-maintained fleet and our commitment to a professional, no-nonsense approach to transport.

The Role

  • Night Shift: 4 on, 4 off. Shift hours are based on an average of 12 hours per shift, calculated over a 26-week reference period. Successful applicants will complete their first block of shifts on days for induction and training before moving to nights.
  • Pay: £35,126 basic salary, with a performance bonus of up to £2,400 per year.
  • Shift hours are based on an average of 12 hours per shift, calculated over a 26 week reference period.
  • Graded driver performance bonus (Grade A – D) worth up to £2,400.00 per annum
  • What you'll do: As part of our general haulage team, you’ll primarily be trunking loads between our UK depots. A typical night might involve moving loaded and empty trailers between our Caldicot, Sutton-in-Ashfield, Essex and Ambergate sites. There may be the occasional customer collection or delivery, but you'll have a consistent workload with no surprises.
  • What we carry: A wide variety of goods, from packaging to food and beverages—and everything in between.

What We Offer

  • A modern fleet of premium brand vehicles (MAN, Scania, DAF & Iveco).
  • Full training and guidance for all new hires, including newly qualified drivers.
  • Funded CPC training and opportunities to gain new skills (ADR, FLT, driver assessor).
  • Workplace pension and 20 days of annual leave.
  • Full PPE and uniform provided.
  • Recently refurbished on-site facilities and free parking.

What You Need

You'll be a fully qualified Class 1 (C+E) driver with a valid CPC and Digi card. Most importantly, you'll have a strong understanding of legal obligations, with a professional approach to load security and safety. Newly qualified drivers are welcome—we have a team of assessors and mentors to get you up to speed.

Additional Benefits

  • Company Pension
