From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Melton Mowbray operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Drivers change jobs for a better rota, a closer depot or a newer fleet. We recruit with that in mind.
Permanent vacancies across the East Midlands come from national distribution centres, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and rail-connected freight operations. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Depots across DIRFT (Daventry International Rail Freight Terminal), Magna Park and the big-shed parks on the M1 and A14 compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.
Permanent driving and transport roles, from the cab to the transport office.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.

Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
For Melton Mowbray operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.
