From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Prestwich operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Drivers change jobs for a better rota, a closer depot or a newer fleet. We recruit with that in mind.
Logistics around Prestwich is powered by the M6/M62 corridor, the Liverpool2 deep-water terminal and one of the UK's densest warehousing clusters. We recruit permanent drivers for the fleets that keep that work moving.
Class 1 trunking, Class 2 store runs and 7.5 tonne multi-drop attract different drivers. We recruit each one differently.
Hiring across the North West is shaped by the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.
Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.
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.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
Indicative permanent salaries in Prestwich 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.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
Permanent drivers become the people who train the next ones. Hiring well now makes the next hire easier.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
