You'll usually work forty hours within those windows on a nine-hour shift with a one-hour break.
From the employer
Got Drive? Join AnyVan as we make moving anything, anywhere miles better and build a career that moves just as fast.
Back in 2009, our Chairman Angus saw half-empty vans everywhere and knew there had to be a better way! That's how AnyVan began. He set out to create the world's most efficient logistics technology and help halve the number of wasted miles by filling those empty vans.
Since then we've become the nation's favourite way to move, with over 150k five-star reviews and 5 million customers in the UK and Europe. Our team of 400 AnyVanners across London, Cape Town and Bogota is proving that moving doesn't have to cost the earth by helping save 8,520 tonnes of Carbon each year.
Big Energy. Big Deals. Big Paydays.
Tired of jobs that feel like groundhog day? At AnyVan, you get the thrill of the chase without the boring stuff. We hand you warm leads, you bring the hustle, and together we make big moves (literally…we move houses, pianos, hot tubs, you name it - we've got a van for that!).
