From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Saffron Walden operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Permanent recruitment for driving roles is about fit as much as entitlement.
Logistics around Saffron Walden is shaped by container traffic through the Haven ports, plus a strong agri-food and retail distribution base. Across the East of England, permanent drivers work out of sites such as the A14 and A11 corridors, the Port of Felixstowe and Stansted airfreight. The right hire usually lives within a sensible commute of the depot.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Permanent demand across the East of England follows port and container logistics, customs and forwarding businesses, FMCG and agri-food supply chains and national 3PLs.
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.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.

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

Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
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.
A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.
