Job Description Have you got what it takes to succeed The following information should be read carefully by all candidates.
Permanent staff position available to join the team within a furniture retailer in West Cumbria.
The job is to load, drive and deliver furniture items to customers' houses.
There may also be times when you will be helping out in the warehouse.
While on deliveries you will be assisted by a Driver's Mate.
Furniture can be heavy and awkward to lift so it is essential that you are strong and healthy.
You will be driving a box van and it would be useful if you've driven similar, as a job, before.
The job is full time and permanent and you will be working five days per week (this will include Saturdays and could, when needed, include Sundays).
You will get two days off per week.

You will be delivering to people's houses so it will help if you are polite, friendly and chatty!
This is not always the easiest job in the world (have you ever tried to get a sofa through the front door?)
but it is secure and a great place to work.
You will certainly be kept fit and healthy without having to go anywhere near a gym!
