HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Brecon

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

Wales

A permanent driving desk for Brecon

Permanent recruitment for driving roles is about fit as much as entitlement.

Much of the permanent driving work across Wales starts at the Bridgend and Llanelli manufacturing estates. We search for drivers who already know that geography.

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.

Hiring across Wales is shaped by the M4 and A55 North Wales Expressway, Cardiff Airport and the ports at Cardiff, Newport, Swansea and Holyhead: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.

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

Matched to the shift

Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.

Assessment drives arranged

Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.

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.

What good drivers cost

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Brecon

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

Class 1 roles usually pay more than Class 2 and nights more than days, but local competition for drivers can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Our process, step by step

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.

The start

Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.

Your brief

Getting the brief right

For Brecon operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.

Driver trainers and team leaders are often promoted from the cab. We recruit for both routes.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • Guaranteed hours and holiday entitlement
  • The start date and how many drivers you need

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.

Can you recruit night trunking drivers?

Yes. Tell us the legs, the start time and whether nights out are involved, so we approach drivers who want that pattern.

Do you cover towns near Brecon?

Yes. We recruit permanent drivers across Wales. Tell us where the depot is and we will search within a realistic commute.

Do you also recruit transport managers and planners?

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

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.
