Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Bicester.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Logistics operations around Bicester serve one of the UK's wealthiest consumer regions, with the Channel ports and Gatwick within the region. Across the South East, permanent drivers work out of sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow. The right hire usually lives within a sensible commute of the depot.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Employers hiring permanent drivers across the South East include grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs.
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.
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 Bicester 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.
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.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
Permanent drivers become the people who train the next ones. Hiring well now makes the next hire easier.
Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.
