Permanent driver recruitment for Aberdeen employers who want drivers that stay: matched on route, shift pattern and vehicle as well as licence.
Permanent recruitment for driving roles is about fit as much as entitlement.
Sites across the Altens and East Tullos estates and the A96 corridor towards Elgin run day, night and weekend patterns. We match a permanent driver to the pattern they will actually keep.
We talk to drivers about the rota, the vehicles, the start time and the depot before we mention your vacancy, so the shortlist is made of people who want that job.
Permanent demand across North East Scotland follows energy supply-chain operators, seafood and agri-food distribution, chilled logistics and North Sea support services.
Permanent roles across every licence category.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Aberdeen goes to someone who can get there every day.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
Indicative permanent salaries in Aberdeen run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
We benchmark against current offers in the area rather than last year's averages. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
