Due to the physical nature of the role, applicants must be capable of performing manual handling tasks safely and effectively. This includes the loading and unloading of biomass fuel products such as wood pellets or wood chip, sometimes in challenging environments or adverse weather conditions.

The role may involve working at height, using hoses or other delivery equipment, and operating within confined or uneven spaces. Candidates should therefore be physically fit, with a good level of stamina and awareness of proper manual handling techniques in accordance with health and safety guidelines.

In addition, the role may require early starts, occasional extended hours, and travel across varying routes, so flexibility and resilience are essential. As our drivers often represent the Company on-site, a professional appearance and customer-focused attitude are also key to upholding AMP's values and service standards.
