Permanent HGV and LGV driver recruitment across southern Scotland, built around retention rather than filling a seat for a week.
Good drivers are rarely out of work, so the search reaches beyond people who happen to be looking this week.
The market around Jedburgh is a corridor market: long-haul and ferry-linked work rather than dense urban distribution. We recruit permanent drivers for the fleets that keep that work moving.
Class 1 trunking, Class 2 store runs and 7.5 tonne multi-drop attract different drivers. We recruit each one differently.
Permanent hires across southern Scotland often come from drivers already working around the A74(M) corridor and the Dumfries and Annan industrial estates.
From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
Indicative permanent salaries in Jedburgh run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Drivers weigh the whole package: pay, hours, holiday, the depot and how often the rota changes. 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.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
For Jedburgh operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.
Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.
