Hiring a driver for good in Ruislip? We run the search, check the licence and the Driver CPC and send a shortlist worth interviewing.

London & the South East

Permanent HGV drivers for Ruislip

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

Permanent vacancies across London & the South East come from last-mile and parcel carriers, grocery and e-commerce fulfilment, airfreight forwarders and national 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.

A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.

Drivers living near Park Royal, the Thames Gateway, London Gateway and the distribution parks ringing the M25 have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.

Positions we place

From Class 1 to transport team leaders

Permanent driving jobs matched to licence, shift and route.

What sets the desk apart

A driver desk, not a generalist agency

Licence and CPC checked

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

Matched to the shift

Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.

The depot and the commute

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

What the market pays

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Ruislip

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

Pay in London & the South East moves with the licence, the shift pattern and the work: nights, tramping and ADR usually carry a premium over day work. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.

Your brief

What we ask at the start

  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
