Supporting UK transport and logistics operations with reliable temporary driving professionals.
Freight Talent provides specialist temporary driving recruitment for businesses requiring flexible driver cover.
From last-minute driving requirements and holiday cover to peak periods and longer-term assignments, our driving recruitment service helps businesses maintain the driver capacity they need to keep their operations moving.
As a temporary driving agency working across the UK, we supply HGV Class 1 and Class 2 drivers, 7.5 tonne drivers and van drivers to hauliers, 3PLs, retailers, manufacturers and own-account fleets. Every driver is checked before they start and briefed on the vehicle, the route type and the shift.
Operators looking for an HGV driver agency usually need cover quickly, so we work licence first. The category, the Driver CPC and the tachograph card are confirmed before any driver is put forward — the first job of any HGV recruitment agency.
Recruiting permanently instead? Our permanent HGV & LGV driver recruitment desk places drivers onto your payroll. Our permanent recruitment division covers the transport office, warehouse and supply chain roles around them.
Temporary drivers across the four licence categories UK operators book most.
Experienced HGV Class 1 drivers for trunking, distribution, general haulage and logistics operations.
Class 1 drivers →Professional Class 2 drivers for local, regional and national driving requirements.
Class 2 drivers →Flexible driving professionals for distribution, multi-drop and commercial delivery operations.
7.5 tonne drivers →Reliable van drivers for multi-drop, courier, delivery and logistics operations.
Van drivers →A specialist transport, logistics and driving recruitment agency — permanent talent and temporary drivers from one partner.
Every driver we put forward holds the licence category, the Driver CPC and the experience the job needs.
We confirm the licence categories a driver actually holds and review endorsements before they start — so a Class 1 shift never goes to a Class 2 licence.
Driver CPC status, Driver Qualification Card expiry and the digital tachograph card are checked and dated before the first shift.
Right to work is established before any assignment. Specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB are checked where a job needs them.
Tell us what drivers you need, where you need them and when you need them. Our driving recruitment team will begin sourcing suitable candidates.
The more we know about the vehicle, the work and the start time, the faster we can match the right driver.
Hiring permanently? Submit a permanent vacancy instead.
Yes. Freight Talent supplies temporary HGV Class 1 (C+E) and Class 2 (Category C) drivers, 7.5 tonne drivers and van drivers to businesses across the UK — for holiday and sickness cover, seasonal peaks, new contracts and ongoing assignments.
Before a driver starts we confirm the licence categories held and any endorsements, check Driver CPC status and Driver Qualification Card expiry, confirm the digital tachograph card and establish right to work. Where a job calls for ADR or another specialist ticket, we check that too.
It depends on the licence category, the location and the shift. Tell us what you need and when. We will give you a straight answer when you book rather than promise a driver we cannot confirm.
Yes. We cover single shifts and short-term gaps as well as ongoing temporary driving assignments and planned cover for holidays, peaks and new contracts.
Yes. Alongside temporary driving recruitment we recruit permanent HGV and LGV drivers and the transport, logistics and supply chain professionals around them — one specialist recruitment partner for both.
