Permanent transport planning and management recruitment across the South East.

South East

Haslemere transport planning recruitment

A permanent transport hire should make the operation cheaper to run and easier to keep compliant.

Haslemere sits in the South East's busy distribution belt, where the M25 corridor and the south-coast ports keep demand for logistics talent high. Across the South East, transport offices at sites such as the parks along the M25, M20 and M23 and the Solent ports need planners who know the roads and the customers.

A transport offer competes with every haulier and 3PL within reach. We help set salary, on-call pay and bonus so it lands first time.

With the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover running through the region, transport planners across the South East often plan national as well as local work.

Three stages to a hire

Qualification check

For transport manager roles, the Transport Manager CPC is confirmed before anything else.

Settling in

We check in during the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.

Your brief

Details that sharpen the search

An operator with a standard licence needs a transport manager. Continuity in that role keeps compliance steady.

Many transport managers started as planners. We recruit for both steps of that career.

A strong transport brief covers:

  • The number and type of vehicles planned
  • The network: trunking, multi-drop, pallet or dedicated
  • The routing and scheduling systems in use
  • Your interview process and any planning exercise
