Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Oakham.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Driving employers across the East Midlands include big-shed national DCs, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and air and rail freight operations. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Drivers living near the M1 and A14 corridors and the East Midlands Airport freight hub have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.
Permanent driving and transport roles, from the cab to the transport office.
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.
We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.
Indicative permanent salaries in Oakham run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
A clear, competitive offer shortens the search. We give you a current read on pay for the role before the vacancy goes live. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.

A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.
Notice periods for drivers are often short, so a good offer can move quickly. We keep the process tight.
