Access to temporary, flexible Driver jobs in Trafford Park with Indeed Flex!

When it comes to keeping safe on the road there are few rules we need you to abide by, to protect both yourself and other road users, and consider the employer you’re working for.

Make sure you take breaks

If you’re entitled to a break during your shift, you must take it. It’s for your own wellbeing. It’s also a legal requirement. For GB domestic rules in relation to breaks, click here.

Accidents happen: make sure you report them

Accidents occasionally happen, so if you have one while driving your van, you need to report it to your employer as soon as possible, with full details of the incident. 

Stick to the speed limits

Indeed Flex receives a weekly report from employers, which will show if you’ve been speeding – you must remain within the speed limit for 98% of the time while driving. Failure to do so will, unfortunately, my negatively impact your status.

Ensure you drive with due care and attention

Indeed Flex is kept up to speed on the quality of your driving, including things like harsh braking or acceleration. Please drive in a manner that would be expected of a professional driver.  

At Indeed Flex, we know that some roles require you to bring your own personal protective equipment (PPE) to stay safe when working. Perhaps, for example, you’ll be working on a construction site. We can reimburse our Flexers up to the value of £30 if you need to buy a high vis’ jacket and safety boots. Simply contact us by visiting the support section in the app to enquire about PPE requirements. 

Please note: In order to be reimbursed, you must be able to provide a VAT receipt for your purchase.

In order to stand out, it is important that you upload your previous work experience onto your profile and fill out your professional summary (‘bio’); employers want to see what you’ve actually done, where you’ve worked, the level of responsibility you held, and how that relates to their role.

Remember – this is your opportunity to sell yourself to employers and tell them who you are and why they should choose you. 

You can view available shifts two ways:

1. Browse tab

On the ‘browse’ tab, you’ll see everything available according to the preferences you set on your profile. To refine your search, you can add more filters. You may come across shifts that require you to apply to work with the client. If so, once you’ve applied, you’ll need to wait to receive an offer, so keep tabs on your inbox and notifications.

2. My Jobs tab

• Look on the ‘offered’ tab, under ‘my jobs,’ to see available shifts to book immediately.
• Select the shift you want and tap ‘book shift.’ It will then show in the ‘booked’ tab.

Make sure you read through the description thoroughly, so you understand what that shift entails, if you can get to the location, and if you have the correct uniform. To learn about booking shifts, read more here.

You can get help in a number of ways – all through the app.

Firstly, you can watch our video tutorials, covering topics like ‘How to book a shift’ and ‘The importance of your profile’.

You can also search our FAQs for answers to the questions we’re most frequently asked.

And if you can’t find the answer(s) you’re looking for by going either of those routes, you can ask us questions via the Live Chat function in the app.
