Car Shunters Required

£9.50 Per Hour

Queenborough, Kent

The Best Connection Group Limited

The Best Connection are currently seeking car shunter drivers for our Sheerness based client.

The company itself specialises in the shunting of cars within a large compound.

Your typical day would involve commencing duties at 07:00 and finishing around 17:30.

Once you arrive at the site, you will need to report to the reception in order to obtain your instructions for the day.

You will be tasked with successfully maneuvering cars within a busy compound, following the clients instructions.

Please be aware that this isn't just a driving role. Candidates must possess a calm and meticulous attitude, as it is essential that cars are not damaged throughout the process of shunting. Candidates will be expected to complete rigorous inspections and vehicle checks, noting all scratches, scuffs and other damage, whilst taking every precaution necessary to ensure that vehicles remain undamaged throughout the maneuvering process.

Please be aware that the vast majority of the vehicles will be brand new, so it is crucial that they are operated in a safe, controlled and extremely careful manner.


The pay rates are:

Monday - Friday: £9.50 per hour

Saturday work is available as and when requested by the client.


Please do not apply for this role if you possess a DD or DR offence on your driving licence.

Candidates must be physically fit, as you will be entering and exiting cars a numerous amount of times throughout the course of the day, as well as walking in a large compound in order to obtain the specific car. The majority of your day will be spent on your feet, in a fast paced environment.

Due to the large variety of cars the compound possesses, it is essential that candidates are comfortable operating both manual and automatic vehicles.

Although not essential, it is beneficial if you possess the D1 entitlement on your driving licence through grandfather rights, as in some cases you will be asked to shunt minibuses.

To begin, you are required to contact The Best Connection branch in order to register online before commencing.
