At Ocado Logistics it’s our mission to change the way the world shops for groceries and it all starts with our LGV drivers. Using our state of the art fleet – some powered by natural gas for specific routes and fitted with extra safety technology – our drivers take to the road to deliver and collect products to and from a variety of locations across the UK.
Our larger warehouses (which we call CFC’s – Customer Fulfilment centres) are cutting edge, and vast (our largest is 573,000sq ft – that’s big enough to accommodate 7 Wembley football pitches!) and our LGV Drivers play a crucial role collecting shopping and distributing it across our smaller regional warehouse sites, for onward delivery to customers. We make a big point that we don’t offer multi drops so there’s no hidden lanes!
As an LGV driver you will be responsible for safely transporting goods, following assigned routes that are up to 12.5 hours per day, and ensuring timely collection and delivery. You will work within a flexible shift pattern consisting of nights, late, and early shifts, including weekends. Your hours can be scheduled for 32 hours over 4 days or 40 hours over 5 days, with additional hours expected as needed. This role is based at our Dordon site, Danny Morson Way, Dordon B78 1SE.
