• Salary – £23k to £35k per annum

Due to continued growth, we require Van Owner Drivers in the following areas;

  • Eastern England – Doncaster, Gainsborough, Scunthorpe, Selby, Wakefield, Worksop
  • North West England – Bolton, Blackpool, Preston, Southport, Salford, Manchester (West), Altrincham, Wilmslow, Macclesfield, Wigan
  • North East England – Darlington, Hexham, Corbridge, Middlesbrough, Redcar, Morpeth, Gateshead
  • Scotland – Dundee, East Dumbarton, Falkirk, North Lanarkshire, Renfrewshire, Stirlingshire

The Role – The role involves both the distribution (posting of charity bags) to households and then collecting the donations a few days later. You are given your own exclusive area which has been geo-mapped and turned into routes for you to follow daily. Two to three times a week you unload your collections at our local depot (a Fuel Allowance is paid) and the donations are then sold on and the profits generated (between 80-95%) go to the charity you are working with

You are paid based on the volume of clothing collected – the more you collect the more you earn – typical owner drivers are earning roughly £28k – however, we have some owners earning in excess of £35k pa – you get out of it what you put in

Requirements

  • An experienced driver with your own van and a relatively clean driving licence
  • A strong work ethic, good organisational skills and a business mindset
  • Be happy working outdoors in all weathers with a sufficient level of fitness and reliability – be able to deliver at least a few hundred charity bags daily and collect donations weighing an average of 5kgs
  • The ability to speak good English with a friendly professional, helpful and customer-focused  manner
  • A real desire to run your own business – If you want to expand, experience of managing a small team is advantageous

Benefits

  • A full structured training programme, together with uniforms, ID and Charity Licences – you will be instantly recognised as working for a reputable business
  • Fantastic support to build a viable, ethical, sustainable and profitable business whilst raising vital funds for our charity partners and helping the environment
  • YOU are genuinely in control of what you earn
  • Extra support to grow your business further (interest-free loans to expand, for example)
  • Weekly pay and minimal start-up costs (all you need is your first couple of weeks fuel money along with your van)
  • Support with recruitment
  • The satisfaction of assisting charities in raising much-needed income
  • Support and guidance from a team of expert managers

This is a great role for lone workers, families and/or friends who want to work together. Collection and Distribution takes place from 7am until all the bags have been posted – your finish time would depend on how hard you work throughout the day so therefore exact finish times do vary – however most teams are done by 2pm (Monday to Friday) so the role offers an exceptionally positive work-life balance.
