Hi all,
I haven’t seen this posted yet, but apologies if it has been. Just seen this on FL’s site. Looks interesting, and there’s loads of vacancies apparently, but I assume you’re basically at there beck and call. £85k salary, but I guess you’d be expected to work for that lol.

Closer to £87k with recent pay deal, you sign up for 2 years and contrary to belief it it isn’t solely possession work.
They predominantly want the RDDs to work on new enquiries coming in rather than the boom and bust of recruiting a drivers based at a depot to begin with especially if contracts are shorter.
Freight seems to be on the up at the moment but can still be volatile
There will be possession work of course but that won’t be the main thrust of it.
You can be sent anywhere in UK with 72 hours notice and you will work week to week. Flexibility is key there is no getting round it, if you have any doubts about staying away or a have a wedding coming up or have kids on the way or a young family(unless used to it) then I would stay clear. They don’t pay you and extra 20k plus for nothing.
But it is for 2 years and then you can revert to a Driver based on HH conditions at the base location you applied for or extend RDD contract.
Be a fantastic job for someone with no family, no friends, no life and a kink for being shafted on a regular basis
Like 90% of sales reps jobs out there then. I get the point but if you go in with eyes wide open to it then no one can have any complaints. If folk see the £85k in big flashing lights and that is main motivation then it isn’t for them.
For a young and single driver with a premium tinder subscription it could be perfect
Whatever floats your boat I suppose
