We recruit permanent Class 1, Class 2 and 7.5 tonne drivers for Bexley and London & the South East, screened on licence and experience before you meet them.
Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.
Much of the permanent driving work across London & the South East starts at the Heathrow airfreight belt, Park Royal, Enfield and the Thames Gateway. We search for drivers who already know that geography.
Night trunks, early store deliveries and weekend work each suit a different kind of driver. The shift pattern is the first thing we ask about.
Hiring across London & the South East is shaped by the M25 orbital, the A13 and A406, Heathrow Airport and the deep-water ports at London Gateway and Tilbury: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.
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.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
Indicative permanent salaries in Bexley run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Basic rate is only part of the offer. Drivers compare shift premiums, overtime rates, guaranteed hours and the age of the fleet. 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.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.
Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.
