HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Sandbach

Permanent driver recruitment for Sandbach employers who want drivers that stay: matched on route, shift pattern and vehicle as well as licence.

North West

HGV and LGV hiring across Sandbach

Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.

Sites across the M6/M62 distribution parks, Trafford Park and the Liverpool2 container terminal run day, night and weekend patterns. We match a permanent driver to the pattern they will actually keep.

Hiring for a new contract? We can recruit several permanent drivers to start in stages, with temporary cover bridging any gap.

Permanent demand across the North West follows grocery and retail distribution, 3PLs, port and container logistics and air and sea forwarders.

Why a specialist driver desk

Built for retention

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.

Pay that lands

We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.

Permanent and temporary

Permanent drivers for your payroll in Sandbach — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.

How it works

Our recruitment process

The search

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

Screening

Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.

Interviews and assessment drives

We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.

Your brief

Your hiring brief

A driver who feels settled looks after the vehicle, the load and the customer. Settled starts with the right job.

If a role is hard to fill, we look at what is making it hard: the start time, the pay or the route. Then we tell you.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The depot address and where drivers start and finish
  • The licence category and any tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Basic pay, shift premiums and overtime rates
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
