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

North West

Hiring drivers for good in Macclesfield

Good drivers are rarely out of work, so the search reaches beyond people who happen to be looking this week.

Much of the permanent driving work across the North West starts at the M6, M62 and M58 corridor parks and the Port of Liverpool. We search for drivers who already know that geography.

If Macclesfield is a hard place to hire, we widen the search to drivers who could realistically commute and tell you plainly what the shortlist is likely to look like.

Hiring across the North West is shaped by the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.

The jobs we work

The permanent seats we fill

Permanent driving jobs matched to licence, shift and route.

Our approach in Macclesfield

Right driver, right shift, right depot

Licence and CPC checked

Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.

Fewer, better interviews

You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.

Through the first weeks

We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.

Pay, clearly

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Macclesfield

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

Pay in the North West moves with the licence, the shift pattern and the work: nights, tramping and ADR usually carry a premium over day work. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Brief, search, shortlist

Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.

Your brief

The brief that works

Permanent drivers become the people who train the next ones. Hiring well now makes the next hire easier.

If a role is hard to fill, we look at what is making it hard: the start time, the pay or the route. Then we tell you.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The licence category and any tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • What your longest-serving drivers like about the job
