Highlands & Islands

Temporary driving recruitment in Alness

Drivers matched to the work, not just to a postcode.

From the Inverness Airport Business Park and the Cromarty Firth ports at Invergordon and Nisbet, a lot of freight leaves the Highlands & Islands every night. Temporary drivers keep those vehicles moving when a regular driver is off.

Busy periods across the Highlands & Islands rarely line up with your permanent headcount. Temporary drivers bridge the difference without adding to it.

Work for distillery and agri-food supply chains, marine and renewables logistics plus multi-modal operators serving the islands keeps artics, rigids and vans busy across the Highlands & Islands through the year.

How it works

From request to first shift

You approve the driver

We share who is starting and when. Nothing is confirmed until you are happy with it.

Tell us when the need changes. Cover can run on, step down or finish at the end of a shift.

Mixed-category bookings

One request can cover artic, rigid and van drivers for the same operation.

Planning cover

What we need from you

For operators across the Highlands & Islands, the cost of an empty seat is a vehicle that does not move. Temporary cover keeps the work flowing while longer-term staffing decisions are made.

Driving work across the Highlands & Islands is rarely one thing. The same operator may need a Class 1 driver for a night trunk and a van driver for the morning round. One request can cover both.

A driver request usually covers:

  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • The type of work: trunking, rigid rounds, multi-drop or delivery
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

Before the first shift

Licence, Driver CPC, tachograph card and right to work are confirmed before the first shift — and ADR or HIAB tickets where the job needs them.

Where a job involves manual handling, customer contact or specialist equipment, we tell the driver before they accept the booking.
