Introduction
Permanent
37.5 hours Per Week
£12.71 per hour
Fulltime role based in South Devon, combining van driving, delivery/collection, warehouse support and physical/manual handling duties.
Join a leading local charity and make a real difference.
Are you an experienced van driver with a full UK driving licence? Are you looking for a role where your skills can support your local community and help a great cause?
At Rowcroft, we believe in making every day the best day possible for our patients and those closest to them, and our Retail Team play a vital role in generating income to make that vision a reality.
Make your work count
If you love being on the move, enjoy practical hands-on work, and want to use your driving and customer service skills in a positive way, this could be the role for you. Our team is friendly, energetic and passionate about making a difference.
This role requires energy, teamwork and a positive attitude to deliver a first-class delivery/collection service to our shops and customers, as well as supporting the growth of our exciting new house clearance service with care and professionalism.
No two days will ever be the same. One morning you might be supporting our new house clearance service, the next delivering stock to our shops across South Devon, problem solving with colleagues, or helping customers with donations. It’s busy, physical, rewarding, and you’ll finish each day knowing your work directly supports local patients and their loved ones.
It can be tough at times, heavy lifting of large furniture items, busy schedules, and tight turnaround times, but you’ll be working with a supportive team who look out for each other, pull together, and have fun along the way.
