Temporary Driving Recruitment in Brixham

Temporary HGV, 7.5 tonne and van drivers for operations in and around Brixham, checked before the first shift and matched to the vehicle you run.

Devon & Cornwall

Drivers for Brixham shifts

Cover that arrives with the right licence and a clear brief on the job.

The market around Brixham is a long-distance market — planning around drive times and seasonality matters more than motorway proximity. When an operator here loses a driver for a week, the rota still has to run — that is the gap we cover.

Demand across Devon & Cornwall comes from food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers. Each booking starts with the licence category, the number of drivers and the date.

The main freight links across Devon & Cornwall are the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

The driver knows the site, the vehicle, the start time and who to report to before arriving.

Planned and urgent requests

Book holiday cover weeks ahead or send a same-week request. Both start the same way.

Planning cover

Before you send a request

For operators across Devon & Cornwall, 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.

Shift patterns vary more in driving than in almost any other logistics role: early starts for store deliveries, nights for trunking and long days for multi-drop. We ask about the pattern before we match.

A driver request usually covers:

  • How long you expect the cover to last
  • Any specialist tickets such as ADR or HIAB
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

Verified, not assumed

We check the paperwork that decides whether a driver can legally do the job: licence categories, endorsements, Driver CPC and card dates, tacho card and right to work.

We ask drivers about the routes, vehicles and shift patterns they know best, so the match rests on experience rather than on a licence alone.

Driving FAQs

Common questions

How do I book a temporary driver?

Send a driver request with your location, the driver category, the number of drivers, the start date and the expected duration. We confirm the details with you and then begin sourcing.

What checks do you run on temporary drivers?

Licence categories and endorsements, Driver CPC status and card expiry, the digital tachograph card and right to work — plus ADR or HIAB where the work needs it.

Can a temporary booking become ongoing?

Yes. Many bookings start as short-term cover and continue as an ongoing assignment. Tell us how long you expect to need the driver.

Do you also recruit permanent drivers?

Yes. Our permanent driver desk places HGV and LGV drivers onto your payroll when you want a seat filled for good.

What happens if the work runs longer than planned?

Tell us as soon as you know. Cover can be extended shift by shift or turned into an ongoing assignment.
