Permanent HGV and LGV drivers for operators in Yeovil, 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.
Driving employers across the South West include port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs. Each runs a different pattern of work, so we recruit to the operation rather than to a job title.
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.
Drivers living near the Avonmouth and Severnside estates have plenty of choice. We help your vacancy stand out.
Permanent roles across every licence category.
Nights, earlies, weekends or tramping: the shift pattern decides whether a driver stays, so it comes first in the match.
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 Yeovil 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.
Route, vehicle, shift, pay and start date, plus what made your best drivers stay.
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.
A permanent driver learns your routes, your customers and your yard. That knowledge is worth more every month they stay.
Career drivers value a known start time, a clean vehicle and a transport office that plans ahead.
