It’s well documented that there is a significant shortage of HGV drivers throughout the Construction and Transport Industry, and subsequently local business the Mick George Group are looking to provide some reprieve with the reintroduction of their dedicated Driver Academy initiative.

Rarely do opportunities like this present themselves, especially when you factor in that the company is prepared to incur the £2,000 training package fee to prevent any financial outlay from the candidates.

Once complete, applicants will not only have obtained their HGV (Class 2) license, but they’ll start working for the company and be given a £40,000 salary for the privilege.

Other benefits include; bonus opportunities, enhanced holiday pay, 33-days annual leave (subject to service), a private pension scheme with employer contributions, minimal weekend work, a modern fleet and overtime possibilities. Perhaps more advantageous is the secure and reliable supply of work, and involvement with many prestigious brands and developments.

The Driver Academy is anticipated to provide the firm with a sustainable source of new and experienced HGV drivers to satisfy the increased demand for their varied service offering and certifying the Group’s status as one of the fastest growing haulage operators in the Anglia and East Midlands regions, while further increasing employment opportunities to local communities.
