Hiring drivers for good in Port Glasgow

Permanent recruitment for driving roles is about fit as much as entitlement.

Sites across the M74 and M9 corridors and the Clyde and Forth port estates run day, night and weekend patterns. We match a permanent driver to the pattern they will actually keep.

A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.

Permanent demand across Scotland follows grocery and retail DCs, food and drink supply chains, energy and port logistics and national 3PLs.

Our approach in Port Glasgow

Right driver, right shift, right depot

Retention first

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.

Pay that lands

We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.

Fewer, better interviews

You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.

Pay, clearly

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Port Glasgow

Indicative permanent salaries in Port Glasgow 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.

Your brief

The brief that works

Where the work is steady, a permanent hire can cost less over a year than rolling temporary cover and gives customers a familiar face.

Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • Guaranteed hours and holiday entitlement
