Transport Planning Recruitment in Kenilworth

Planners who cut empty miles and managers who keep the operator's licence safe, recruited for Kenilworth fleets.

West Midlands

Permanent transport managers for Kenilworth

The transport manager is responsible for the operator's compliance. That is why we check the qualification before anything else.

Transport vacancies across the West Midlands come from national 3PLs, automotive and manufacturing supply chains and large retail distribution centres. 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 the West Midlands are spread across operators at sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, the i54 and the rail-freight terminals around Birmingham.

Positions we place

From planners to network managers

Transport roles for trunking, multi-drop, pallet network and dedicated operations.

What sets the desk apart

A transport desk, not a generalist agency

Matched to the network

Trunking, multi-drop or dedicated contract: we match planners to the kind of work they have planned before.

Compliance mindset

We look for managers who treat drivers' hours, maintenance and loading rules as part of the job, not paperwork.

A shortlist you can use

A short list of people who fit the fleet, with notes on systems, network and results.

What the market pays

What transport planners and managers earn in Kenilworth

Indicative permanent salaries in Kenilworth run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.

How it works

What happens after you brief us

The brief

Fleet size, network, systems, hours and the problem the new hire needs to solve.

Qualification check

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

The offer

We help settle salary, hours and start date so the offer is accepted first time.

Your brief

What we ask at the start

Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the office needs someone to own the plan.

Notice periods for transport managers can be long, so we plan the handover from the first call.

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
  • Whether the role is the nominated transport manager

Transport FAQs

Worth knowing

Do transport managers need a CPC?

Yes. GOV.UK says you need the Transport Manager Certificate of Professional Competence (CPC) to become a transport manager. Operators with a standard national or international operator's licence need a transport manager.

How do you check transport candidates?

We confirm qualifications such as the Transport Manager CPC, check right to work and ask about the fleets, networks and systems they have run.

Can you recruit night planners?

Yes. Tell us the hours and the network so we approach planners who want night work and have done it before.

Do you recruit for operators outside Kenilworth?

Yes. We cover operators across the West Midlands. Tell us where the traffic office is and we will search the commute around it.

Can you recruit a traffic office for a new contract?

Yes. We can recruit planners, supervisors and the transport manager together, timed to the contract start.
