driver Salisbury, England
Job description
Are you a driver looking for a challenge? How about an exciting role driving passenger vehicles in support of our Army customers? You’ll get to work independently with substantial overtime available. Join a great team at Aspire Defence Services…
As a driver, you’re driven to perfection, and you take great care to give your passengers the best experience.
You’re cool, calm, and collected enough to operate a variety of vehicles (Coaches, Minibuses, Land Rovers, Cars, and Vans), because you never know when your expert skills will come in handy.
There’s only one seat on the driver’s side, so you understand how to work well alone, knowing that you have a great team and manager ready to support your needs like a trusty front and rear axle.
You’re approachable and dependable and your customer trusts you to get them where they need to go.
And you’ll take great pride in providing driving support to the Army, even though that also means remembering your scout training to “be prepared” to work occasional nights (if you want the extra money).
But first, meet the team…
With a 35-year contract, making soldiers’ lives better is at the heart of everything we do at Aspire Defence Services.
Seriously, picture a heart (the real one) and imagine how hard it works to keep the body running, making sure every part gets exactly what it needs to thrive. That’s our mission; to deliver a modern, fully serviced, flexible working environment for soldiers.
And just as the heart needs certain parts to keep the body alive, we need the dedication and commitment of our people to support our customers. We deliver a broad range of services for one-third of the British Army living and working on our patch, and we're proud of the work we do.
We’re all about nurturing great teams, and our award-winning safety and wellbeing initiatives are built on keeping an eye out for one another and having a good work-life balance.
In addition to being part of a team, you’ll also get…
25 days annual leave plus bank holidays, as well as the option to buy and sell holiday
Opportunity to earn substantial overtime
Driver CPC and ongoing training
Vocational licence medical renewals
Full PPE and Workwear supplied
Contributory Company Pension Plan matched up to 6%, plus individual life assurance
A shopping discounts scheme
Employee assistance and health and wellbeing check ins
Reward and recognition to celebrate outstanding achievements
Ready to join the team?
You must have a Current Cat. D Licence (PSV) with no more than 6 points and a Current Driver CPC Qualification Card.
You’ll also need to know how to operate digital tachographs and be familiar with Drivers Hours Regulations.
