HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Huntingdon

Settled, permanent driving roles for career drivers and reliable permanent hires for Huntingdon transport managers.

East of England

Hiring drivers for good in Huntingdon

A permanent hire should still be in the cab next year. That is the standard we recruit to.

Driving employers across the East of England include container and forwarding operators, agri-food and cold-chain distribution, e-commerce fulfilment and regional 3PLs. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.

Retention is where permanent driver recruitment pays for itself. A driver who leaves after three months means another search, another induction and another gap on the rota.

Depots across the Port of Felixstowe and the A14 corridor, Stansted and the parks along the A1 and M11 compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.

Pay, clearly

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Huntingdon

Indicative permanent salaries in Huntingdon run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.

We benchmark against current offers in the area rather than last year's averages. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Brief, search, shortlist

The shortlist

A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.

Interviews and assessment drives

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

The offer

We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.

Your brief

The brief that works

For Huntingdon operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.

A realistic job description helps retention. We write the advert around the actual shift, not the best week of the year.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The licence category and any tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • Your interview and assessment drive process

Driver FAQs

Before you ask

Do you recruit permanent HGV drivers in Huntingdon?

Yes. We recruit permanent Class 1, Class 2 and 7.5 tonne drivers for operators across the East of England, placed directly onto your payroll.

How do you check drivers before we meet them?

We confirm licence categories and endorsements, Driver CPC status, the digital tachograph card and right to work, then talk to each driver about the job.

How long does a permanent driver search take?

It depends on the licence, the shift pattern and the local market. We give you a realistic view at the start, before the search begins.

Can you recruit several drivers at once?

Yes. For a new contract or a growing fleet we can recruit a group of permanent drivers, with start dates staggered if that helps.

Do you recruit drivers with ADR or HIAB tickets?

Yes. Tell us the ticket and the type of loads so we look for drivers who hold it and have used it.
