From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Armadale operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Drivers change jobs for a better rota, a closer depot or a newer fleet. We recruit with that in mind.
Permanent vacancies across Scotland come from retail and grocery distribution, food, drink and whisky supply chains, energy logistics and national 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
If Armadale is a hard place to hire, we widen the search to drivers who could realistically commute and tell you plainly what the shortlist is likely to look like.
Across Scotland, permanent driving roles cluster around freight sites such as the M74 and M9 corridors and the Clyde and Forth port estates.
From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.
We ask drivers what would make them stay before we ask whether they can start, so the people we shortlist want this job, not just a job.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.
Indicative permanent salaries in Armadale run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Drivers weigh the whole package: pay, hours, holiday, the depot and how often the rota changes. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.
Notice periods for drivers are often short, so a good offer can move quickly. We keep the process tight.

It depends on the licence, the shift pattern and the local market. We give you a realistic view at the start, before the search begins.
Yes. Tell us the legs, the start time and whether nights out are involved, so we approach drivers who want that pattern.
Yes. For a new contract or a growing fleet we can recruit a group of permanent drivers, with start dates staggered if that helps.
Yes. Our temporary driving desk supplies HGV Class 1, Class 2, 7.5 tonne and van drivers while the permanent search runs.
A settled shift, a depot they can reach easily, a well-kept vehicle and pay that matches the local market. We recruit around all four.
