Car / Van Trade Plate Driver

Overview

Fancy a change from a normal driving job? Vmoves are looking for individuals, with a can-do attitude, patience, an eye for detail and a true understanding of what customer service is. We require Inspector Drivers to appraise a variety of vehicles and deliver them across the UK. Inspection experience would be an advantage but not necessary as full training is offered. Vmoves are a family business with family values, we treat our drivers and office team fairly and respectfully. Our philosophy is to pay good rates in exchange for all members accepting ownership for their part in making each vehicle inspection and delivery a success. Good teamwork and considerate behaviour between each other and our customers are the corner stone of our success to date. There will always be good and bad days but you will receive the full support of our experienced office team (several who have done the job themselves) and we strive to achieve a good work-life balance for the drivers and office team alike.

You can expect daily payments to range between £65 – £95, dependent upon licence, region and number of vehicles inspected and delivered per day. We also pay up to £50 for overnight fees. This self-employed position allows you to be your own boss and to choose your own working days. Vmoves also inspect, collect & deliver HGV’s nationwide. If you are looking to upgrade your licence, Vmoves have successfully financed and upgraded reliable self-employed contractors to the HGV division.
