We recruit permanent Class 1, Class 2 and 7.5 tonne drivers for Larkhall and Scotland, screened on licence and experience before you meet them.
A permanent hire should still be in the cab next year. That is the standard we recruit to.
Much of the permanent driving work across Scotland starts at Eurocentral — one of the UK's largest rail-connected freight parks — Bellshill and the M8 distribution belt. We search for drivers who already know that geography.
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.
Employers hiring permanent drivers across Scotland include whisky and food and drink distribution, retail and grocery DCs, port and intermodal operators and Scottish 3PLs.
Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Larkhall goes to someone who can get there every day.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.
Indicative permanent salaries in Larkhall 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.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.
Drivers who leave early often cite the rota, the depot or the vehicle. We raise all three in the first conversation.
