HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Prestatyn

Permanent driver recruitment for Prestatyn employers who want drivers that stay: matched on route, shift pattern and vehicle as well as licence.

North Wales

HGV and LGV hiring across Prestatyn

We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.

Driving employers across North Wales include manufacturing supply chains, port and ferry logistics, agri-food distribution and cross-border hauliers. 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.

Hiring across North Wales is shaped by the A55 expressway, the A483, the A5 and the port of Holyhead: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.

The roles we cover

Permanent roles on the driving desk

Permanent roles across every licence category.

Why a specialist driver desk

Built for retention

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.

Permanent and temporary

Permanent drivers for your payroll in Prestatyn — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.

Through the first weeks

We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.

Salaries in the area

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Prestatyn

Indicative permanent salaries in Prestatyn run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.

Basic rate is only part of the offer. Drivers compare shift premiums, overtime rates, guaranteed hours and the age of the fleet. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

How it works

Our recruitment process

The brief

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

Screening

Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.

Interviews and assessment drives

We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.

Your brief

Your hiring brief

Permanent drivers become the people who train the next ones. Hiring well now makes the next hire easier.

Driver trainers and team leaders are often promoted from the cab. We recruit for both routes.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • The vehicles and the age of the fleet
  • Your interview and assessment drive process
  • What your longest-serving drivers like about the job
