Permanent HGV and LGV drivers for operators in Widnes, recruited onto your payroll for a fixed shift and a depot they can plan a life around.
Permanent recruitment for driving roles is about fit as much as entitlement.
Much of the permanent driving work across the North West starts at the Trafford Park and Salford estates and the Manchester Ship Canal. We search for drivers who already know that geography.
If Widnes 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.
Hiring across the North West is shaped by the M6, M62, M56 and M61, Manchester and Liverpool airports and the Port of Liverpool: drivers weigh the commute and the routes as much as the pay.
Permanent roles for career drivers at every stage.
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.
