HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Burgess Hill

From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Burgess Hill operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.

South East

Burgess Hill driver recruitment, done properly

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

Permanent vacancies across the South East come from grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.

Hiring for a new contract? We can recruit several permanent drivers to start in stages, with temporary cover bridging any gap.

Across the South East, permanent driving roles cluster around freight sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow.

How we work with Burgess Hill fleets

Fewer interviews, better hires

The depot and the commute

We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Burgess Hill goes to someone who can get there every day.

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.

Permanent drivers for your payroll in Burgess Hill — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.

Pay benchmarks

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Burgess Hill

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

Three stages to a hire

The brief

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

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

Interviews and assessment drives

We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.

If a role is hard to fill, we look at what is making it hard: the start time, the pay or the route. Then we tell you.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The licence category and any tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • The vehicles and the age of the fleet
  • The start date and how many drivers you need
