From trunking to multi-drop, we find permanent drivers for Whitstable operations and put forward the ones who want the job for the long term.
We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.
Permanent vacancies across the South East come from grocery and retail DCs, Channel-port and customs operations, FMCG supply chains and national 3PLs. Each wants drivers who will still be on the rota in a year.
A permanent offer competes with every other operator's. We help you set pay, shift premiums and start dates that land first time.
Depots across the Dartford and Thames-side parks and the M20 route to the Channel 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.
Licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC status and the tachograph card are confirmed before a driver reaches your shortlist.
Where you run an assessment drive, we build it into the interview process so candidates know what to expect.
Permanent drivers for your payroll in Whitstable — and temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van cover when a seat needs filling first.
Indicative permanent salaries in Whitstable 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.
Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
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.
The cost of a vacancy is more than the advert: overtime for other drivers, missed slots and pressure on the planners.
Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.
