Permanent HGV and LGV driver recruitment across southern Scotland, built around retention rather than filling a seat for a week.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Permanent vacancies across southern Scotland come from Irish Sea ferry and groupage operators, dairy and agri-food processing, forestry and timber haulage and regional 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
Night trunks, early store deliveries and weekend work each suit a different kind of driver. The shift pattern is the first thing we ask about.
Depots across the Borders towns along the A7 and A68 and the A1 coastal corridor compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.
From 7.5 tonne multi-drop to Class 1 trunking and the team leaders around them.
We look at where drivers live as well as what they drive, so the role in Selkirk goes to someone who can get there every day.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
Indicative permanent salaries in Selkirk 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.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
A short list of drivers who fit, each with notes on licence, experience and availability.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
For Selkirk operators with regular routes, a permanent driver brings the consistency customers notice.
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.
