HGV & LGV Driver Recruitment in Witney

Settled, permanent driving roles for career drivers and reliable permanent hires for Witney transport managers.

South East

Hiring drivers for good in Witney

We look for drivers who want the job you are offering, not just any job with a licence attached.

Witney sits in the South East's busy distribution belt, where the M25 corridor and the south-coast ports keep demand for logistics talent high. We recruit permanent drivers for the fleets that keep that work moving.

Hiring for a new contract? We can recruit several permanent drivers to start in stages, with temporary cover bridging any gap.

Across the South East, permanent driving roles cluster around freight sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow.

The jobs we work

The permanent seats we fill

Permanent driving jobs matched to licence, shift and route.

Our approach in Witney

Right driver, right shift, right depot

Retention first

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.

Matched to the shift

Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.

Fewer, better interviews

You see a short list of drivers who fit the route, the vehicle and the pattern, rather than a stack of CVs.

Pay, clearly

What HGV & LGV drivers earn in Witney

Indicative permanent salaries in Witney 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.

How it works

Brief, search, shortlist

The search

Drivers who are looking and drivers who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.

The offer

We help agree pay, start date and notice period so the offer is accepted first time.

After the start

We check in during the first weeks so any early problem is raised and resolved.

Your brief

The brief that works

Permanent hiring suits steady, year-round work. Temporary cover suits peaks and gaps. Many operators use both.

Driver trainers and team leaders are often promoted from the cab. We recruit for both routes.

A strong permanent driver brief covers:

  • The shift pattern and how often it rotates
  • The vehicles and the age of the fleet
  • The type of work: trunking, rounds, multi-drop or tramping
  • The start date and how many drivers you need

Yes. We recruit permanent drivers across the South East. Tell us where the depot is and we will search within a realistic commute.

Can you recruit several drivers at once?
