Removals Porter in Winsford

Initially this role is on a self-employed contractual basis, with the possibility of permanent employment for contractors who show commitment and are successful. This role rewards experience in similar environments, although it is not required. More important is a hard-working attitude, logical mindset, and eagerness to progress, as this role is considered a path into an illustrious career within the removals industry, with any qualifications needed for promotion being provided to you.

Exciting opportunity to join a growing and ambitious removal company expanding their operations nationally. We are looking for individuals to forge a career in the removals and furniture installations industry, and for those extra driven individuals, potentially project management. Extensive training and qualifications can be achieved by the right candidates. This is the first step for those looking at a career where every day is literally different!

We are proud to promote from within, and working with us in this role gives us the opportunity to learn about you as much as for you to learn about us. If you cannot commit to a physically and mentally demanding role, please do not apply!
