Settled, permanent driving roles for career drivers and reliable permanent hires for Lichfield transport managers.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Lichfield sits in the West Midlands, at the heart of the UK 'Golden Triangle'. Across the West Midlands, permanent drivers work out of sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, Prologis Park Midpoint and the i54. The right hire usually lives within a sensible commute of the depot.
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 the West Midlands include automotive and component supply chains, national retail DCs, contract logistics providers and rail-linked operators.
Permanent roles for career drivers at every stage.
We ask drivers what would make them stay before we ask whether they can start, so the people we shortlist want this job, not just a job.
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.
Indicative permanent salaries in Lichfield 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.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
