Permanent HGV and LGV drivers for operators in Swindon, recruited onto your payroll for a fixed shift and a depot they can plan a life around.
Good drivers are rarely out of work, so the search reaches beyond people who happen to be looking this week.
Operators across the South West are served by the M5, M4 and A38, Bristol Airport and the Port of Bristol at Avonmouth and Royal Portbury. Permanent drivers value routes they know and a start time that stays the same.
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.
Permanent demand across the South West follows port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs.
Permanent driving jobs matched to licence, shift and route.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.
We keep in touch through the notice period and the first weeks in the job, so small problems are raised before they become resignations.
Indicative permanent salaries in Swindon run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
Class 1 roles usually pay more than Class 2 and nights more than days, but local competition for drivers can move either figure. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
Licence, endorsements, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work checked, then a conversation about the job itself.
We arrange the interviews and any assessment drive, then brief each driver beforehand.
The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.
Drivers who leave early often cite the rota, the depot or the vehicle. We raise all three in the first conversation.
