We recruit the people who plan the routes, run the traffic office and keep Lichfield and the West Midlands fleets compliant.
A good traffic office is invisible: vehicles leave on time, drivers stay legal and customers get what they were promised.
Operations at sites such as Hams Hall, Birch Coppice, Prologis Park Midpoint and the i54 plan around delivery slots, drivers' hours and vehicle availability. We match planners to that reality.
Taking on a new contract? We can recruit the planners and the transport manager together so the traffic office is ready on day one.
With the M6, M5, M42 and M40, Birmingham Airport and strong rail-freight connections running through the region, transport planners across the West Midlands often plan national as well as local work.
Planning, scheduling, compliance and fleet roles.
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 Lichfield run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.
A clear offer shortens the search. We give you a current read on pay for the role before it goes live. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
A short list with notes on each candidate's fleet, systems and results.
We arrange interviews and any planning exercise, then brief each candidate beforehand.
We check in during the first months so any early issue is raised and resolved.
Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the office needs someone to own the plan.
Many transport managers started as planners. We recruit for both steps of that career.
