Rochester driving agency

Temporary Driving Recruitment in Rochester

When a seat is empty in Rochester, we source a driver who holds the right licence and knows the work, then confirm them with you before they start.

South East

A driving agency for Rochester operators

Flexible driver capacity for busy weeks, quiet cover for planned absence.

From port and Channel freight to retail distribution, employers around Rochester compete hard for experienced permanent people. When an operator here loses a driver for a week, the rota still has to run — that is the gap we cover.

Hiring permanently as well? Our permanent driver desk covers Rochester too, so one agency handles the cover and the hire.

The main freight links across the South East are the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover. They run day and night. So does the need for drivers.

What to put in a driver request

A temporary driver for Rochester is booked around the work, not the other way round: the licence, the vehicle and the pattern of shifts decide who we put forward.

Operators in Rochester often need cover at the same moments: school holidays, the run-up to Christmas and the first weeks of a new contract. Booking those peaks early gives the widest choice of drivers.

A driver request usually covers:

  • The site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • Who the driver reports to on arrival
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

Checks on every driver

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.

Paperwork is the minimum. We also look at the work a driver has done recently, the vehicles they have driven and whether the shift pattern suits them.
