Wolverhampton grew initially as a market town with a specialism within the woolen trade. During and after the Industrial Revolution, the city became a major industrial centre, with mining, as well as a production of steel, japanning, locks, motorcycles and cars. Today, the major industries within the city are both engineering based (including a large aerospace industry) and within the service sector. And where there are industries, there is always a need for Forklift truck drivers/ operators. This is where 4KS forklift training comes at your service.
Wolverhampton being such an industrial centre, there is a large demand for forklift truck drivers and operators for commercial businesses. A quick search on job sites shows that an average salary for a counterbalance forklift driver is £19,000 plus additional company bonuses of £250 per calendar month. For those looking for hourly rates, these range between £8.00 – £9.50 an hour for a Forklift Truck Driver in Wolverhampton. 4KS Forklift Training Ltd offer quality, industrial Forklift Truck Training in Wolverhampton.
