Full Job Description

  • 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 be based outside, processing our customer orders, loading and unloading customer and company vehicles.

  • You will also unload our building products from supplier deliveries and accurately book them in the branch warehouse.

  • Full training is provided in order to drive our forklifts.

  • 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.


  • This role is based in our Travis Perkins Edinburgh Sighthill branch. This is a brand new branch which will be opening this year! We are looking for some strong talent to come in and take this branch to strength and make it the best builders merchant in the local area. They will be a team of 13 including a tool hire, HGV wagons and a benchmarx in the branch. This is an opportunity for someone to get their teeth stuck in and develop a long lasting career with us. We are looking for someone to bring confidence and customer service skills to be the front of our business working on the counter.

    My name is Natalie, and I currently work as part of the recruitment team here at Travis Perkins, but I started of 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.
