HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Banff

Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Banff.

North East Scotland

A permanent driving desk for Banff

Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.

Permanent vacancies across North East Scotland come from offshore energy logistics, subsea and oilfield services, food and drink processing and regional 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.

Retention is where permanent driver recruitment pays for itself. A driver who leaves after three months means another search, another induction and another gap on the rota.

Permanent hires across North East Scotland often come from drivers already working around Aberdeen harbour and the energy-supply bases at Altens and Tullos.

Roles on our desk

Driving and transport roles

Permanent driving and transport roles, from the cab to the transport office.

What you can expect

Permanent hires that last

Pay that lands

We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.

Fewer, better interviews

You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.

Through the first weeks

We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.

What good drivers cost

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Banff

Indicative permanent salaries in Banff run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.

A clear, competitive offer shortens the search. We give you a current read on pay for the role before the vacancy goes live. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Our process, step by step

The brief

Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.

The shortlist

A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.

The offer

We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.

Your brief

Getting the brief right

The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.

A realistic job description helps retention. We write the advert around the actual shift, not the best week of the year.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • The vehicles and the age of the fleet
  • What your longest-serving drivers like about the job

Driver FAQs

The detail

How long does a permanent driver search take?

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.

Do you help set the salary?

Yes. We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime for the role so your offer is competitive before the vacancy goes out.

Do you also recruit transport managers and planners?

Yes. Our transport and planning desk recruits the transport office roles around your drivers.

I am a driver. How do I find a permanent role?

Upload your CV and tell us your licence, your area and the shift pattern you want. We contact you when a permanent role fits.

What makes a permanent driver stay?

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.
