How it works

How we find the planner

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 search

Planners and managers who are looking and those who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.

Your brief

Setting up the search

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

Planners who leave early often cite the hours, on-call demands or an office that never plans ahead. We raise all three first.

A strong transport brief covers:

  • Hours, nights and on-call expectations
  • The measures that matter: cost per drop, utilisation and on-time delivery
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
  • The main problem the new hire should fix
