Temporary Driving Recruitment in Lowestoft

A temporary driving agency for Lowestoft operators — drivers sourced against your booking, with licence and compliance checks done before they arrive.

Norfolk & the Fens

Drivers for Lowestoft shifts

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

The road network across Norfolk & the Fens — the A11, the A47, the A17 and the ports at Great Yarmouth and King's Lynn — shapes the driving work. Drivers we book for Lowestoft sites know the routes they will be running.

We supply drivers to agri-food and vegetable processing, cold storage, offshore wind and southern North Sea energy logistics and regional 3PLs. Class 1 for trunking, Class 2 for rigid rounds, 7.5 tonne for regional multi-drop and vans for final-mile work.

Bookings across Norfolk & the Fens can start at sites such as the A11 corridor and the Norwich and Thetford distribution parks, so we always confirm where the first shift begins.

How it works

How a driver booking works

We shortlist by licence

Drivers are matched on the category the vehicle needs first, then on experience of the work.

First-shift briefing

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

Mixed-category bookings

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

Planning cover

Getting the booking right first time

Cover is flexible by design. A booking can be a single shift, a fortnight of holiday cover or an assignment that runs for months. It can change as your workload does.

Driving roles carry legal requirements that office roles do not. That is why the licence category and the Driver CPC are checked before a driver's experience is even discussed.

A driver request usually covers:

  • How many drivers you need
  • The shift pattern: days, nights, weekends or a mix
  • 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.

Can one request cover different driver types?

Yes. A single request can include Class 1, Class 2, 7.5 tonne and van drivers. List each category and the number of drivers you need for it.
