Hiring a driver for good in Launceston? We run the search, check the licence and the Driver CPC and send a shortlist worth interviewing.
Good drivers are rarely out of work, so the search reaches beyond people who happen to be looking this week.
Permanent vacancies across Devon & Cornwall come from chilled and ambient food distribution, marine services, aggregates and china clay logistics and independent hauliers. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
Hiring for a new contract? We can recruit several permanent drivers to start in stages, with temporary cover bridging any gap.
Depots across Plymouth's port and the Devonport and Langage industrial estates compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.
Permanent roles for career drivers at every stage.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Launceston goes to someone who can get there every day.
Permanent drivers for your payroll in Launceston — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.
Indicative permanent salaries in Launceston run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.

Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
Permanent hiring suits steady, year-round work. Temporary cover suits peaks and gaps. Many operators use both.
