Job Description
Join One of the UK's Leading Ice Production & Event Specialists

Founded in 1993, Icebox is one of London's largest and most established ice suppliers, delivering premium ice products to bars, restaurants, hotels, venues, festivals and major events across the UK.

From supplying iconic venues such as The Savoy, The Ivy and Gordon Ramsay's restaurants to delivering bespoke ice sculptures for high-profile events, we have built a reputation for exceptional quality, reliability and service.

We're now looking for enthusiastic and reliable Delivery Drivers to join our growing team and play a vital role in keeping London's hospitality and events industry supplied with ice, seven days a week.

The Role

This is far more than a standard driving job.

As a Delivery Driver at Icebox, you'll be the face of the business, delivering our products directly to customers across London and the surrounding areas. You'll ensure every delivery arrives safely, on time and to the high standards our customers expect.

The majority of your time will be spent completing multi-drop deliveries in one of our modern fleet vehicles, often delivering to some of London's most prestigious hotels, restaurants, bars and event venues.

Once fully trained and experienced, you'll also have the opportunity to deliver and help install our world-renowned ice sculptures, giving you the chance to be involved in some of the UK's most exciting events and celebrations.

Working at Icebox is fast-paced and physical. Ice doesn't wait, so you'll need energy, commitment and a strong work ethic to thrive in the role.

What You'll Be Doing

Your responsibilities will include:
• Completing multi-drop deliveries across London and the South East
• Providing excellent customer service at every delivery location
• Loading and unloading ice products and equipment safely

• Conducting vehicle checks and helping maintain company vehicles
• Supporting warehouse operations when required
• Helping keep work areas clean, organised and safe
• Working efficiently to meet delivery schedules while maintaining quality standards

What We're Looking For

We're looking for people with the right attitude, reliability and work ethic. We can teach you the technical side of the role, but we're looking for individuals who take pride in their work and enjoy being part of a hardworking team.

You'll ideally be:
• Reliable, punctual and professional
• Comfortable working in a fast-paced environment
• Physically fit and capable of lifting heavy items
• Customer-focused and a strong communicator
• Detail-oriented and committed to delivering high standards
• Flexible and willing to work weekends and seasonal peak periods
• Keen to learn new skills and develop within the business

• Aged 25 or over (insurance requirement)
• Right to work in the UK

Salary & Hours
• £34,000 – £43,500 per year, depending on hours worked and experience

Why This Role Is Different

Few delivery jobs give you the opportunity to work behind the scenes of London's biggest events, deliver to some of the country's most prestigious venues, and become part of a business that creates thousands of bespoke ice sculptures every year.

If you're hardworking, dependable and looking for a role that's a little different from the ordinary, we'd love to hear from you.
