Permanent drivers for hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets in and around Sittingbourne.
Every permanent driver we put forward has been checked on licence, experience and what they want from the role.
Logistics operations around Sittingbourne serve one of the UK's wealthiest consumer regions, with the Channel ports and Gatwick within the region. We recruit permanent drivers for the fleets that keep that work moving.
If Sittingbourne 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.
Depots across the M25 and M3 corridors, the south-coast ports and the distribution parks around Gatwick compete for the same experienced drivers, so a clear offer matters.
Drivers for every licence category, plus the people who train and lead them.
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.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
Permanent drivers for your payroll in Sittingbourne — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.
Indicative permanent salaries in Sittingbourne run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Pay in 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.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
