Use apache commons net library. There's an example of FTPClient usage.

You also need to configure dependencies for the build script itself. Following code does it:

import org.apache.commons.net.ftp.FTPClient

buildscript {
    repositories {
        mavenCentral()
    }

    dependencies {
        classpath 'commons-net:commons-net:3.3'
    }
}

task upload << {
     def ftp = new FTPClient()
     //following logic..
}
