Hiring a transport manager in Corby? We check the Transport Manager CPC first, then the experience behind it.
Strong planners are rarely out of work, so the search reaches people who are not looking.
Fleets across the East Midlands depend on the M1, A14, A42 and A50, East Midlands Airport's major air-freight hub and DIRFT's rail terminal. Planners who know those links plan tighter days.
A planner who leaves after a few months takes the knowledge of your routes and customers with them. Getting the hire right protects both.
Across the East Midlands, planners and transport managers are hired by national distribution centres, 3PLs, e-commerce fulfilment and rail-connected freight operations.
Transport roles for trunking, multi-drop, pallet network and dedicated operations.
We ask which routing and scheduling systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
Night planning, on-call and weekend cover are discussed up front, so the candidate knows the job they are taking.
For a new contract we can recruit the planners and the manager together, timed to the start date.
Indicative permanent salaries in Corby run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.
Salary is only part of the offer. Candidates compare on-call pay, bonus, hybrid working and the size of the fleet they will run. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Fleet size, network, systems, hours and the problem the new hire needs to solve.
Planners and managers who are looking and those who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
We check in during the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.
A permanent planner learns your customers, your drivers and your routes. That knowledge makes every week's plan better.
Planners who leave early often cite the hours, on-call demands or an office that never plans ahead. We raise all three first.
