Safely handle, position, and assemble equipment where required
Follow delivery routes to ensure efficiency and timeliness
Work closely with Customer Services to deliver a seamless in-house service
Ensure compliance with driving regulations, including tachograph usage
Support training and onboarding of new team members

Full, clean UK driving licence with C1 entitlement (7.5T required)
Valid Driver CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence)
D4 medical (or willingness to obtain) if required
Experience using tachographs and driving 7.5T vehicles
Physically fit and comfortable with heavy lifting
Proven experience in delivery and installation or setup of large/bulky items
Strong hands-on ability (DIY skills or technical aptitude essential)
Excellent customer service and communication skills
Musical knowledge desirable — ideally a piano player or strong interest in music
Leadership or team mentoring experience
Flexible to travel nationwide
 
Additional Requirements

Comfortable operating a range of electric vehicles and 7.5T panel van (tachograph required)
Longer working days may be required depending on location (e.g. long-distance deliveries such as Cornwall)
Occasional overnight stays may be required depending on delivery routes
Flexibility around working hours to accommodate longer/shorter days as required
Full availability during peak trading (mid-November to mid-January)
 
Hours: Up to 48 hours per week (typically Monday- Friday, 9.00am-6.00pm, with flexibility around shorter and longer days as required) 
 
What we'll give you 
 
Alongside the benefit of working with a fantastic bunch of talented people, we are committed to providing a well-rounded benefits package that includes development opportunities and support for your wellbeing:

Generous discount scheme across our full range of music and home entertainment products
Employee Assistance Programme, offering 24/7 caring & compassionate support across a wide range of areas
