If you fancy a job with Jack Richards they’re looking for HGV CAT C+E 1 Trampers at their Fakenham & Wisbech depots.
As the website says: Motivated and reliable HGV drivers required for tramping. You must be flexible and prepared to work hard in return you will be paid well, drive a DAF XF 105 or Volvo FH 12 and become part of a great team. Only apply for any of the above vacancies if you are prepared to work alternate Saturdays and are prepared for 4-5 nights out each week.
only way to apply is on-line, its a funny set up, they won’t accept applications on phone or letter, i tried it, downloaded the application and medical forms, spent 40 minutes filling them out, but sending back on-line it just wouldn’t do it and when i tried to save the information to send later, it cleared both forms completely clean, would of liked to of worked for them but gave it up, what happened to a good old telephone call
limeyphil:
if they can’t talk to you on the phone to sort out a job, then they arn’t worth working for.
i’m a person, not a number or an online form.
I sort of agree with you Phil. It’s a bit arrogant. But then again I would’ve thought they probably get so many wannabes calling them, they’d need someone full time just answering the phone.
And maybe they’re interested in the drivers who show a bit of initiative and get round their own restrictions…
Their gear always looks professional, and that’s a big plus for me.

There are many jobs where you have to phone and leave your details on an answerphone. They then send you an application form.(if you’re lucky)
I applied online and got a reply and interview within about four days. Much better result than many other companies.
