At the core of everything we do are our values:

We are looking for a motivated Sales and Delivery Driver reporting into our Hawkes Bay branch.

This is a hands-on customer-facing role, combining regular product deliveries with sales support, customer service, and relationship building. You will be out on the road, visiting customers, delivering battery products, processing orders, and helping grow sales across the local region.

This role would suit someone who enjoys dealing with people, likes being active and, on the move, and wants to build a career in sales, customer service, or the automotive trade sector.

What you’ll be doing

You will:

• Deliver battery products to customers across the wider Hawkes Bay region.
• Build strong relationships with new and existing customers.
• Support sales growth through regular customer contact and product conversations.
• Process customer orders accurately and efficiently.

• Follow a regular call plan and support branch sales activity.
• Work closely with the branch team to deliver excellent customer service.
• Maintain safe work practices when handling, loading, and delivering batteries.
• Represent HCB professionally while on the road and with customers.

About you

You do not need to be a battery expert from day one. We can teach product knowledge. What matters most is attitude, reliability, communication, and the ability to build trust with customers.

You will bring:

• A full Clean New Zealand drivers licence.
• Strong communication and customer service skills.
• A reliable, proactive, and positive attitude.
• Good attention to detail.
• Confidence dealing with customers face to face.
• The ability to work independently while staying connected to the branch team.
• A willingness to learn products, systems, and sales processes.
• Good physical fitness, as the role involves handling and delivering battery products.
• Current legal right to work in New Zealand.

Automotive, trade, delivery, warehousing, retail, or customer service experience would be useful, but we are open to people with the right attitude and willingness to learn.

What’s in it for you

• Full-time, Monday to Friday role.
• Competitive remuneration.
• Ongoing training and support.
• Career development opportunities within HCB and the wider Bapcor Group.
• A varied role with a mix of driving, customer service, sales, and branch support.
