Permanent HGV and LGV driver recruitment across the South West, built around retention rather than filling a seat for a week.
A permanent hire should still be in the cab next year. That is the standard we recruit to.
Sites across the Avonmouth and Severnside parks, the M4/M5 junction and the distribution sites along the M5 run day, night and weekend patterns. We match a permanent driver to the pattern they will actually keep.
If Radstock 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 South West is shaped by the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.
Permanent driving and transport roles, from the cab to the transport office.
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.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.
Indicative permanent salaries in Radstock run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Drivers weigh the whole package: pay, hours, holiday, the depot and how often the rota changes. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.
Drivers who leave early often cite the rota, the depot or the vehicle. We raise all three in the first conversation.
