From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Castleford operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
A permanent hire should still be in the cab next year. That is the standard we recruit to.
Logistics around Castleford is anchored by the M62 corridor, iPort Doncaster and the Humber ports at Hull and Immingham. Across Yorkshire, permanent drivers work out of sites such as the M62 corridor parks and the iPort rail terminal at Doncaster. The right hire usually lives within a sensible commute of the depot.
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.
Employers hiring permanent drivers across Yorkshire include retail and online fulfilment operations, regional 3PLs, manufacturing distribution and Humber port logistics.
Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Castleford goes to someone who can get there every day.
You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.
Indicative permanent salaries in Castleford 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.

We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
Permanent drivers become the people who train the next ones. Hiring well now makes the next hire easier.
Notice periods for drivers are often short, so a good offer can move quickly. We keep the process tight.
