Permanent HGV and LGV driver recruitment across the South West, built around retention rather than filling a seat for a week.
Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.
Operators across the South West are served by the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. Permanent drivers value routes they know and a start time that stays the same.
Class 1 trunking, Class 2 store runs and 7.5 tonne multi-drop attract different drivers. We recruit each one differently.
Depots across Avonmouth and Severnside, the M5 corridor and the Western Approach parks compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.
From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.
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.
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 Nailsworth run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
If your offer sits below the local market, we will say so before you interview anyone. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.
Driver trainers and team leaders are often promoted from the cab. We recruit for both routes.
A strong permanent driver brief covers:

A short brief is enough to start: the vehicle, the pattern of work and the start date.
