  • Assist with deliveries & collections.
  • Support with test & run equipment, which would consist of preparing and maintaining equipment, keeping machinery clean and in working condition.

We know you are more than just a CV and embracing everybody’s individuality is what makes us great as a team. We can give you plenty of training and equip you with the tools that you’ll need to succeed as a Hire Controller; all you need to bring is a positive can-do attitude!

If you’re in the trade or have ever tackled a home improvement project, you’ve probably heard of us. We’re the Huws Gray Group, and we’re made up of a number of brands, including Huws Gray, Hirebase, Civils & Lintels, The Timber Group, PDM, NDI, and Angelia Tool Centre to name a few. Up and down the UK, our branches are serving and supporting our local communities with all their building material needs, but we couldn’t do this without the right people, so why not join us?
