HGV Driver

HGV drivers, also known as Heavy Goods Vehicle drivers, are responsible for transporting goods across the UK and sometimes internationally. They drive large vehicles such as lorries and trucks, ensuring that cargo is delivered safely and on time. The job involves long periods on the road, checking vehicle safety, loading and unloading goods, and completing delivery paperwork. HGV drivers must hold a special licence (Category C or C+E), and good communication and time management skills are important. This career is crucial for keeping supply chains moving, and there is currently a high demand for new drivers.
