HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Oldbury

Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Oldbury.

West Midlands

A permanent driving desk for Oldbury

Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.

Logistics around Oldbury is powered by the Golden Triangle's big-shed distribution and a deep automotive and manufacturing supply chain. We recruit permanent drivers for the fleets that keep that work moving.

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.

Hiring across the West Midlands is shaped by the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.

Roles on our desk

Driving and transport roles

Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.

What you can expect

Matched to the shift

Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.

The depot and the commute

We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Oldbury goes to someone who can get there every day.

Assessment drives arranged

Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.

How it works

Our process, step by step

The brief

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

The offer

We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.

After the start

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

Your brief

Getting the brief right

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

We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • The start date and how many drivers you need
  • What your longest-serving drivers like about the job

Driver FAQs

The detail

Which licence categories do you recruit for?

Category C+E (Class 1), Category C (Class 2) and C1 (7.5 tonne), plus drivers with ADR or HIAB tickets.

How do you check drivers before we meet them?

We confirm licence categories and endorsements, Driver CPC status, the digital tachograph card and right to work, then talk to each driver about the job.

Can you recruit night trunking drivers?

Yes. Tell us the legs, the start time and whether nights out are involved, so we approach drivers who want that pattern.

Can you recruit several drivers at once?

Yes. For a new contract or a growing fleet we can recruit a group of permanent drivers, with start dates staggered if that helps.

What makes a permanent driver stay?

A settled shift, a depot they can reach easily, a well-kept vehicle and pay that matches the local market. We recruit around all four.
