Wales

A permanent driving desk for Ebbw Vale

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

Operators across Wales are served by the M4 and A55 North Wales Expressway, Cardiff Airport and the ports at Cardiff, Newport, Swansea and Holyhead. Permanent drivers value routes they know and a start time that stays the same.

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

Across Wales, permanent driving roles cluster around freight sites such as the M4 and A55 corridors, the South Wales ports and the North Wales manufacturing parks.

Your brief

Getting the brief right

Permanent hiring suits steady, year-round work. Temporary cover suits peaks and gaps. Many operators use both.

Notice periods for drivers are often short, so a good offer can move quickly. We keep the process tight.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • Guaranteed hours and holiday entitlement
  • Your interview and assessment drive process
  • The start date and how many drivers you need
