West Midlands

Recruiting permanent drivers in Redditch

Drivers change jobs for a better rota, a closer depot or a newer fleet. We recruit with that in mind.

Driving employers across the West Midlands include automotive and component supply chains, national retail DCs, contract logistics providers and rail-linked operators. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.

If Redditch 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.

Permanent hires across the West Midlands often come from drivers already working around Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, Prologis Park Midpoint and the i54.

Who we place

Permanent driving jobs in Redditch

From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.

What Redditch employers get

Matched on the job, not just the licence

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.

Licence and CPC checked

Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.

The depot and the commute

We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Redditch goes to someone who can get there every day.

What drivers earn

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Redditch

Indicative permanent salaries in Redditch 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.

How it works

From brief to start date

The brief

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

The search

Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.

The shortlist

A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.

Your brief

Before we start searching

The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.

A realistic job description helps retention. We write the advert around the actual shift, not the best week of the year.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • Guaranteed hours and holiday entitlement
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • The start date and how many drivers you need

Driver FAQs

Common questions

Can you recruit night trunking drivers?

Yes. Tell us the legs, the start time and whether nights out are involved, so we approach drivers who want that pattern.

Do you cover towns near Redditch?

Yes. We recruit permanent drivers across the West Midlands. Tell us where the depot is and we will search within a realistic commute.

I am a driver. How do I find a permanent role?

Upload your CV and tell us your licence, your area and the shift pattern you want. We contact you when a permanent role fits.

Do you recruit drivers with ADR or HIAB tickets?

Yes. Tell us the ticket and the type of loads so we look for drivers who hold it and have used it.

What makes a permanent driver stay?

A settled shift, a depot they can reach easily, a well-kept vehicle and pay that matches the local market. We recruit around all four.
