Trade plate driving vacancies

As people on here are in to cars, thought I'd advertise on here.

If you can answer yes to the following questions, then this could be of use:

Do you live anywhere around Cheshire, Shropshire, Staffordshire or the West Midlands?
Please note, due to the locations of the compounds of where we move vehicles to, we have to be strict on peoples locations.

Are you smart, reliable, dependable and don't mind early starts?

Are you over 30 with no more than 6 points (No D&D's sorry)?

or over 25 with at least 3 years driving experience, no accidents and no more than 3 points?

Have off road parking for 1 car at night?

You will either be working as part of a team of 3 to 5 within the North West and/or Midlands area collecting a delivering cars to and from branches and taking in to compounds, or you could be doing long distance deliveries all over the UK. Unlike a lot of trade plate companies, we don't leave you stranded, and we do find return work for our drivers. If not, we do assist with travel costs to get you on to your next job.
We have contracts with some of the UK's leading remarketing and rental companies and auction houses, as well as many others.

Work is on a self employed basis. Average earnings is £300-£500 per week.

if this may interest you and you can start immediately, please email in the first instance to coxy914(@)me.com or pm with:

All driven work I'm afraid, and we have to be strict on age due to insurance restrictions.

that was 16 years ago in my book and long since spent as far as I'm concerned.

We all make mistakes, no need to punish people forever because of it.

For insurance purposes, any DD is considered spent after 10 years anyway, so yes.

Know Cannock well, only live just down the road!

can you get over to J3 M54 for 11am tomorrow?
My business address is about 1/2 mile from J3 next to RAF Cosford, so about 15 minutes drive from Cannock.

As far as I am aware, any DD conviction is spent after 10 years.
It is for my companies requirements and it is for insurance as far as I know.

If you were to come to me for work and openly and honestly stated that you had a DD conviction 16 years ago, I would thank you for your honest, but I would never let it cloud my judgement on whether you could undertake the role.
Now, if you turned up in jeans, t shirt and trainers, I'd kindly show you the door as fast as you found it to get in!
