Permanent transport planning and management recruitment across Wales.
We look for planners who have planned your kind of work: trunking, multi-drop, pallet networks or dedicated contracts.
Transport vacancies across Wales come from manufacturing and automotive supply chains, port logistics, retail DCs and national 3PLs. Each needs people who can plan for cost and compliance at once.
A planner who leaves after a few months takes the knowledge of your routes and customers with them. Getting the hire right protects both.
Transport office roles across Wales are spread across operators at sites such as the South Wales M4 distribution belt, the ABP ports and the Deeside Industrial Park.
From night planners to heads of transport.
The Transport Manager CPC and any other qualifications the role needs are confirmed before a candidate reaches your shortlist.
Trunking, multi-drop or dedicated contract: we match planners to the kind of work they have planned before.
We ask which routing and scheduling systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
Indicative permanent salaries in Aberdare run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.
Transport office pay in Wales moves with the size of the fleet, the network and the hours: night planning and on-call usually pay more. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Planners and managers who are looking and those who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
Systems, fleet size, network type, compliance record and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.
A short list with notes on each candidate's fleet, systems and results.
An empty planning desk costs more than the advert: overtime, missed slots and avoidable empty miles.
We ask candidates why they left their last traffic office. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.
