At Warburtons, family is at the heart of our business. Five generations'??? worth of expertise that goes into making our bakery products allows us to continue a tradition of baking inherited over the past 141 years.
Warburtons is the largest bakery brand in the UK, but that doesn't allow us to rest on our laurels. We are pioneers of the industry and ambitious market leaders, always seeking to challenge ourselves and convention. It is part of our philosophy to provide honest good sense on issues of health and well-being, helping the whole family to enjoy our products as part of a healthy, balanced diet, through a range of products to suit all meal occasions, lifestyles and tastes.
As 'the UK's No. 1 Bakery Brand'* we have been baking bread since 1876. Today, we are proudly a fifth-generation family, with the sixth generation starting to join the company, supplying over 18,000 retail customers from 11 bakeries and 15 depots, producing a range of over 70 products including gluten and wheat free. Our family of 5,000 colleagues throughout the UK, have recognised us as a Sunday Times Top 25 Best Big Companies' to work for.
Family and values are what makes us different, and we are a proud bunch, join us and you too could be proud to be Warburtons.

The Recipe
Are you a class 1 Trunker Driver on top of your game? Working alongside the Distribution teams you'll drive in one of the most professional fleets in the country. Our vehicles have state-of the art telematics, sat nav and tracking systems. Our teams are dedicated to ensuring our depots and hubs are ready to deliver great quality and freshness to millions of people every day. Join us and be proud to be heading in the right direction.
As one of our drivers you'll deliver Warburtons' products across the Distribution network, within all legal and company requirements for transport legislation, Health and Safety, hygiene, quality, food safety.
Key Accountabilities and Measures
* Be supported with a 6-week induction, support from in-house driver training teams, SAFED and ongoing CPC. Your Driver CPC training is in work hours too, not outside of them.
* You'll work set contracted hours and have stable shift patterns on a weekly rotating basis, all of which will hopefully help you to plan your life around work more easily.
* Your knowledge of basic vehicle maintenance mechanical knowledge (in order to able to relay faults on defect forms) and transport legislation will be key, for example Driver Hours, WTD and the Highway Code for a smooth and safe day
* Enjoy plenty of autonomy. As a driver you'll assist in the loading and unloading of your trailer - working safely is a key priority for us, so you'll be compliant with Health and Safety, quality, food safety and accident reporting procedures to achieve an accident-free workplace - and you're off!
* As you won't only be delivering to our own depots, but also customer RDC's, you'll provide a quality service, that develops strong relationships, exceeds their expectations and on occasion be able to manage confrontation in a calm and professional manner, as well as acting as an ambassador for our brand with everyone, while living our values
Essential Ingredients
To join the Warburtons family, you'll need a LGV Cat C+E driving licence with no more than 6 points. You'll also have a good knowledge of transport legislation and tachographs, be reliable, responsible and used to working in a Trunking role.
Extra Dough
At last and by no means yeast you will want to know what your breads worth:
* A slice of the annual profits (discretionary profit share)
* Award winning pension scheme with company contributions up to 7%
* Life assurance
* Products you will love along with deals and discounts for you and the family through our Extra Dough website
* Continued investment in your personal development
* Fully stocked kitchens filled with our delicious products for you to enjoy with your daily brew!
* Support for your health and wellbeing, including access to free physiotherapy, 24/7 access to a confidential helpline for practical advice and a comprehensive occupational health service
We respect and value difference. We look to create an inclusive workplace that promotes and values diversity. Companies that are diverse in age, gender identity, race, religion, sexual orientation, physical or mental ability, ethnicity, or any other aspect which makes them unique, are proven to be better companies. More importantly, creating an environment where everyone, from any background, can do their best work, is the right thing to do
