Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Prudhoe.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Driving employers across the North East include automotive and process-industry supply chains, port and container logistics and retail DCs. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.
If Prudhoe is a hard place to hire, we widen the search to drivers who could realistically commute and tell you plainly what the shortlist is likely to look like.
Hiring across the North East is shaped by the A1(M), A19 and A66, Newcastle Airport and the ports at Tyne and Teesport: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.
Permanent driving and transport roles, from the cab to the transport office.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Prudhoe goes to someone who can get there every day.
You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.
Indicative permanent salaries in Prudhoe run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Class 1 roles usually pay more than Class 2 and nights more than days, but local competition for drivers can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
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.
