What will I be doing?
Not one day is the same as the next in TP branch life, but here are a few pointers:
Our success is built on strong relationships with our customers so it’s essential that you can help deliver the highest standards of service - the key thing is to be helpful and friendly at all times, you will likely get to know our customers on a first name basis.
You will have a mixture of internal and external work, ranging from testing tools and taking orders inside, to being outside with customers loading vehicles or even delivering their goods
Full training is provided in order to test and know how to use and give advice on our hire items
Will be driving the Tool hire vehicle to strengthen your knowledge of our business on this management course by really getting to see all aspects of the business
Safety is at the forefront of everything we do, your aim will be to ensure that our standards never slip, this means maintaining a tidy and safe working environment.
Driving licence is mandatory, held for a minimum of 12 months.
My name is Natalie, and I currently work as part of the recruitment team here at Travis Perkins, but I started off my career in my local branch when I was 18 completing a development programme, which I then became a Branch Supervisor. Let me tell you more about us, and why you should consider a career with our brilliant business.
Let’s be honest, no one grows up with a burning passion to work in a builders merchant (well, I know I certainly didn't!). I didn't really know what to expect, but since joining, I have been supported by an amazing team that have an unrivalled passion to provide an excellent level of service to our local customers (typically builders and tradespeople) and I’m now working in a completely different area of the business in an area that I love.
Training on offer:
As part of your role you will enrol onto a 12 month programme, you will gain a Level 2 Hire Controller qualification. All of your learning is “on the job”, Travis Perkins values a work-life balance and there is no need for you to complete any of your work “out of hours”. The training consists of a number of modules and you will have a dedicated coach that will guide you throughout, as well as being supported by your line manager (and in my case a really supportive team who I consider to be my friends!)
Just remember you are never too old to start a Development Programme.
Once your development programme is completed you will remain a valued member of the team.
I hope that you’re as excited about this role as I am, and that my first hand experience has provided a small insight into what we do here. Apply today, you won’t regret it!
We’re driving to become a truly inclusive employer. We want everyone to be at their best and it’s our ambition that everyone within our Group feels safe, welcome and confident to be their authentic selves.
