The role

As a Loomis Driver Guard, you’ll have fantastic earning potential. Almost 10% of our drivers earn more than £45,000 and over 20% earn more than £40,000 (includes overtime** and shift pay).

To enable you to carry out your role successfully, we will provide you with full training, your essential kit (including full uniform and Personal Protective Equipment where required), as well as continued development throughout your career with us.

In return we offer the following: 

  • 24 days holiday per year (excluding bank holidays)

  • A 12-week induction and training programme (The Loomis Way)

  • Life Assurance

  • Employee Assistance Programme (EAP)
