HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Ealing

Permanent HGV and LGV drivers for operators in Ealing, recruited onto your payroll for a fixed shift and a depot they can plan a life around.

London & the South East

Permanent drivers for Ealing operators

Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.

Driving employers across London & the South East include last-mile and parcel carriers, grocery and e-commerce fulfilment, airfreight forwarders and national 3PLs. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.

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.

Drivers living near London Gateway and the Thames Gateway, Park Royal, Enfield and the Heathrow airfreight belt have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.

Why Ealing operators use a specialist

Drivers who stay

Retention first

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.

Matched to the shift

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

Through the first weeks

We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.

Pay & benchmarking

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Ealing

Indicative permanent salaries in Ealing 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

How a permanent search runs

Screening

Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.

Interviews and assessment drives

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

After the start

We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.

Your brief

What to put in the brief

A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.

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 depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • The licence category and any tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
