<p class="text-muted mb-3">Hours: 40 hours per week, Monday to Friday</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Benefits: Company van provided, mobile phone supplied, fuel for business travel, full training and ongoing support.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Looking for a role with independence, variety, and customer interaction?</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">This position may suit candidates with experience in customer service, field service, delivery driving, merchandising, inventory management, warehouse operations, stock control, engineering support, or similar customer-facing roles.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Our client are seeking a reliable and self-motivated VMI Service Driver to support customer locations across South Wales, Bristol, and surrounding areas.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">This is a field-based role where you'll work independently, managing an assigned route of customer locations and ensuring inventory is maintained to the highest standards.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Using a company van, you will visit customer locations, replenish stock, generate replenishment orders, maintain VMI areas, and build strong working relationships with customer teams.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">This role focuses on delivering a consistently high standard of service across your assigned customer portfolio. Rather than simply delivering products and moving on, you'll take ownership of inventory performance at each location, helping customers maintain stock availability, identifying issues before they become problems, and ensuring agreed service standards are consistently achieved.</p>

<h5 class="fw-bold text-success mt-4 mb-3">Key Responsibilities</h5>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Visit customer sites to service and maintain Vendor Managed Inventory (VMI) locations.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Maintain safe, organised, and professional VMI areas.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Build positive working relationships with customer contacts.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Report inventory concerns, customer feedback, and service issues to Sales and Operations teams.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Manage daily schedules and routes efficiently while working independently.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Ensure agreed service standards are maintained across all assigned locations.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Support customers by resolving day-to-day inventory issues and escalating concerns where appropriate.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Complete all required paperwork and system updates accurately and on time.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">What We're Looking For</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Full UK Driving Licence.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Experience driving vehicles up to 3.5 tonnes.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Strong customer service and communication skills.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Confidence using smartphones, email, Microsoft Teams, and mobile applications.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Good attention to detail and organisational skills.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Ability to work independently and manage your own workload.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">A proactive approach to problem solving.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Professional and positive attitude when interacting with customers.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Commitment to safe working practices and company procedures.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Ability to build effective working relationships with customers and colleagues.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">What We Offer</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Permanent full-time position.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Monday to Friday working pattern.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Mobile phone supplied.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Full training and ongoing support.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">Freedom to manage your own day while being supported by an experienced regional Operations and Sales team.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">A varied role working with a wide range of customers and industries.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">The opportunity to take ownership of your route and build long-term customer relationships.</p>

<p class="text-muted mb-3">If you are organised, customer-focused, enjoy working independently and take pride in delivering a high standard of service, we'd like to hear from you.</p>
