Job description

SR Transit is the UK’s Specialist Car Parts Transporter and we’re expanding due to new contracts!

We provide a safe and superior service alternative to using couriers for the transport of large and fragile vehicle parts. Our drivers are respected within the automotive industry for serving businesses and enthusiasts alike with professionalism, expert car parts handling and above all- passion for what we do! We are looking for more drivers who are ready to build a career within the automotive and transport industries and can offer shift flexibility and a large range of benefits for dedicated and knowledgeable car, truck or motorbike enthusiasts!
