It takes many highly skilled people to build a house, but they all have one thing in common: the ability to work as a team. It is the single most important skill – nothing would get built at all, let alone to Bloor Homes’ exacting standards, without people working together smoothly, safely and efficiently. On a construction site, or in a storage facility, a Forklift Truck Driver is solely responsible for moving materials around – safely, quickly and efficiently. Nobody else could do their job without those materials being in the right place at the right time. The Forklift Driver is a key member of the team.

Safety is key – it is the driver’s responsibility to ensure safe access and walkways, to ensure skips are used correctly and waste materials are managed in line with our waste policies.

  • Checking the quality of material delivered to site.
  • The storage and distribution of materials on site.
