Transport planning recruitment for Liskeard operators who need a traffic office that plans ahead rather than firefights.
A good traffic office is invisible: vehicles leave on time, drivers stay legal and customers get what they were promised.
Fleets across Devon & Cornwall depend on the A30, the A38, the A390, the M5 as far as Exeter and the ports at Plymouth and Falmouth. Planners who know those links plan tighter days.
When the Liskeard market is thin for transport talent, we look further along the commute and give you an honest view of the likely shortlist.
Transport demand across Devon & Cornwall follows food and drink and agri-food processing, marine and port logistics, tourism-driven retail distribution and regional hauliers.
Permanent transport roles matched to fleet size, network and systems.
Trunking, multi-drop or dedicated contract: we match planners to the kind of work they have planned before.
We ask which routing and scheduling systems candidates use every day, so there is no hidden learning curve.
We benchmark salary, on-call pay and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
Indicative permanent salaries in Liskeard 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.
Systems, fleet size, network type, compliance record and right to work checked, then a conversation about your operation.
We help settle salary, hours and start date so the offer is accepted first time.
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.
We ask candidates why they left their last traffic office. The answer tells us whether yours will keep them.
A strong transport brief covers:
Loading live roles…
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.
We confirm qualifications such as the Transport Manager CPC, check right to work and ask about the fleets, networks and systems they have run.
Yes. We cover operators across the South West. Tell us where the traffic office is and we will search the commute around it.
Upload your CV and tell us the fleet size, network and systems you know. We contact you when a permanent role fits.
