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

East Midlands

Drivers for Scunthorpe shifts

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

The road network across the East Midlands — the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal — shapes the driving work. Drivers we book for Scunthorpe sites know the routes they will be running.

Hauliers, 3PLs, retailers and own-account fleets across the East Midlands book temporary drivers with us for planned and unplanned gaps.

Work for big-shed national DCs, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and air and rail freight operations keeps artics, rigids and vans busy across the East Midlands through the year.

How it works

Booking cover in three steps

We shortlist by licence

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

Mixed-category bookings

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

Planning cover

Before you send a request

Some operators use temporary drivers to trial a new route or contract before committing to permanent hires. Others use them to flex with demand week by week.

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:

  • The site address or postcode where the vehicle is based
  • How many drivers you need
  • The start date and first shift time
  • The shift pattern: days, nights, weekends or a mix
Compliance

Verified, not assumed

Compliance comes before confirmation. Licence entitlement, endorsements, Driver CPC currency, the tacho card and right to work are all checked first.

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