From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Whitchurch operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
Good drivers are rarely out of work, so the search reaches beyond people who happen to be looking this week.
Permanent vacancies across the West Midlands come from national 3PLs, automotive and manufacturing supply chains and large retail distribution centres. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
Retention is where permanent driver recruitment pays for itself. A driver who leaves after three months means another search, another induction and another gap on the rota.
Across the West Midlands, permanent driving roles cluster around freight sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham.
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.
We benchmark basic pay, shift premiums and overtime against the local market before the vacancy goes out.
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 Whitchurch run from around £30k for 7.5t up to £45k+ for Class 1 nights and trunking.
We benchmark against current offers in the area rather than last year's averages. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.
Induction dates, the first shift and who to report to, confirmed with the driver in advance.
We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.
Permanent hiring suits steady, year-round work. Temporary cover suits peaks and gaps. Many operators use both.
We ask candidates why they left their last role. The answer tells us whether your job will keep them.
