Class 1 HGV Driver - Nights role at DFDS

Do you want to be a valued part of the critical infrastructure that serves communities across Europe and beyond? If so, you could be the newest addition to our team as a Class 1 Driver.

We’re looking for a reliable and professional Class 1 HGV night driver to join our team delivering frozen goods across the UK. You’ll be out on the road in modern, well‑equipped trucks, making sure deliveries get where they need to be, safely and on time.

• Carry out vehicle checks before and after each shift
• Keep delivery paperwork tidy and accurate
• Work closely with our planners to keep things running smoothly
• Use onboard tech to monitor temperatures and routes

You’ll need a valid Class 1 (C+E) licence, Driver CPC, and a DIGI card. Experience with fridge trailers is great, but if you’re new to it, we’ll give you all the training you need. What really matters is a positive attitude, a focus on safety, and a commitment to delivering excellent customer service every time.

We think the strongest teams are built on diversity and inclusivity. Contrasting opinions, varied skills and strong characters bring out the best in us all. And we cannot wait for you to join.
