Temporary Driving Recruitment in Swindon

Need drivers in Swindon? Tell us the licence, the site and the start time and we will begin sourcing suitable drivers.

South West

Driver cover across Swindon

The licence, the shift pattern and the vehicle come first in every booking.

Swindon draws on the South West's distribution and port-logistics base, concentrated around the M5 corridor. Across the South West, driving work runs out of sites such as the Avonmouth and Severnside parks, the M4/M5 junction and the distribution sites along the M5, so we ask where the vehicle is based before anything else.

Whether you run artics out of a distribution centre or vans on parcel rounds, temporary cover for Swindon starts with a short call about the work.

Work for port logistics, retail and grocery DCs, aerospace and defence supply chains and regional 3PLs keeps artics, rigids and vans busy across the South West through the year.

How it works

From request to first shift

Tell us the requirement

Location, driver category, number of drivers, start date and expected duration: the same details the request form asks for.

We shortlist by licence

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

Extending or ending cover

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

Planning cover

Planning temporary cover

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

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
  • The licence category the vehicle needs
  • How many drivers you need
  • Whether the booking could become ongoing
Compliance

What we check

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.
