From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Elgin operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.
Permanent vacancies across North East Scotland come from offshore energy logistics, subsea and oilfield services, food and drink processing and regional 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
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.
Permanent hires across North East Scotland often come from drivers already working around Aberdeen harbour and the energy-supply bases at Altens and Tullos.
Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
Permanent drivers for your payroll in Elgin — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.
We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.
Indicative permanent salaries in Elgin 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.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.
Notice periods for drivers are often short, so a good offer can move quickly. We keep the process tight.
