Transport Planning Recruitment in Macduff

We recruit the people who plan the routes, run the traffic office and keep Macduff and Scotland fleets compliant.

North East Scotland

Macduff transport planning recruitment

A good traffic office is invisible: vehicles leave on time, drivers stay legal and customers get what they were promised.

Transport vacancies across North East Scotland come from energy supply-chain operators, seafood and agri-food distribution, chilled logistics and North Sea support services. Each needs people who can plan for cost and compliance at once.

We ask candidates which routing software they use, how many vehicles they plan and what they have done about empty miles.

Operators at sites such as the A90 corridor, Dyce and the Bridge of Don industrial estates compete for the same experienced planners, which is why pay moves quickly.

Three stages to a hire

Qualification check

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

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 empty planning desk costs more than the advert: overtime, missed slots and avoidable empty miles.

Strong planners value good systems, a manager who backs their decisions and customers who plan ahead.

A strong transport brief covers:

  • The routing and scheduling systems in use
  • Whether the role is the nominated transport manager
  • Salary, bonus and on-call pay
  • Who the role reports to and who reports to it
