Settled, permanent driving roles for career drivers and reliable permanent hires for Buxton transport managers.
Permanent driver recruitment starts with the shift, the vehicle and the depot, because those are what decide whether a driver stays.
Permanent vacancies across the East Midlands come from national distribution centres, airfreight and express operators, e-commerce fulfilment and contract logistics. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
If Buxton is a hard place to hire, we widen the search to drivers who could realistically commute and tell you plainly what the shortlist is likely to look like.
Permanent hires across the East Midlands often come from drivers already working around the Golden Triangle parks at DIRFT, Magna Park and Hams Hall.
Permanent driving jobs matched to licence, shift and route.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.

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