Don’t just take our word for it, ask our drivers:
“I like the family atmosphere at Jenkins. They are really fair employers- they listen to my side of the story, I like the way the company is run. I drive a 20-mile trip to work every day, I’d never travelled that far for work before but it’s worth it. All the kit and equipment is nice. No one else drives my truck- that means a lot to me. The work’s clean, it’s a nice clean job, and 90% of the loading is indoors. The customer relations are really good, Jenkins always go for quality over quantity. I like it when you go to a customer and they say “Oh thank god it’s Jenkins bringing it- it’ll be on time.” That’s down to good planning and the work the planning team do. It’s a really good working environment, everything about the job is good; lorries, trailers, people- it really makes a difference. It’s a great team, I really can’t fault them, we all pitch in. It’s a really pleasant place to work, I get on with everybody.
I’ve been here 7 years, it’s the longest I’ve been with any company and I’ve no intention of going anywhere. I still love driving because I’ve got a good job.”
