HGV and LGV hiring across Norwich

We talk to drivers about the rota, the vehicles, the start time and the depot before we mention your vacancy, so the shortlist is made of people who want that job.

Drivers living near Great Yarmouth port and the southern North Sea energy base have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.

How it works

Our recruitment process

The shortlist

A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.

The start

Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.

After the start

We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.

Your brief

Your hiring brief

A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.

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 shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • The vehicles and the age of the fleet
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • The start date and how many drivers you need
