About this HGV Driver role at Copart
We're recruiting HGV Drivers to join our team based at our Colchester Operation Centre, CO7 6HR.
Our HGV Drivers load, collect, and deliver accident-damaged vehicles, which often requires physical effort. This full-time, Monday to Friday role offers a great work-life balance with no bank holiday work.
Copart is a global leader in online vehicle remarketing and recycling, partnering with insurance companies, banks, and automotive businesses. Drivers must comply with legal and company standards, performing vehicle inspections and reporting any issues.
No transporter experience? No problem – we'll provide 3 weeks of one-on-one training and ongoing CPC training. If you have a Cat C licence, you can upskill to C+E after completing your probation.
After training a reasonable salary expectation based on an average on 7 vehicle collections per day, would be approx. £44,111 per annum.

HGV Licence Class 1 & Class 2
Current CPC
A good understanding of the EC Drivers Hours and Working Time regulations
Driving experience in both rural and urban environments
Great written and verbal communication skills
Excellent customer service skills
Strong attention to detail

Give Back: Receive a paid day to volunteer for a charity of your choice.
