Permanent transport planning and management recruitment across the South East.
Every transport candidate we put forward has been checked on qualifications, systems and the fleets they have run.
Operations at sites such as the parks along the M25, M20 and M23 and the Solent ports plan around delivery slots, drivers' hours and vehicle availability. We match planners to that reality.
Night planning, early starts and on-call cover suit different people. The hours are one of the first things we ask about.
With the M25, M3, M4, M20 and M23, Gatwick Airport and the ports at Southampton, Portsmouth and Dover running through the region, transport planners across the South East often plan national as well as local work.
Permanent roles across the traffic office, from planners to transport managers.
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.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months, while a new planner learns your customers.
Indicative permanent salaries in Marlow run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.
Where an offer is likely to fall short of the local market, we say so before interviews are booked. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
For transport manager roles, the Transport Manager CPC is confirmed before anything else.
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.
A transport manager who knows the fleet's history spots maintenance and compliance risks earlier.
When a transport role is proving hard to fill, we work out whether the hours, the pay or the systems are the obstacle. Then we tell you.
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.
On GOV.UK's list, a transport manager makes sure drivers have a valid licence, vehicles are taxed, insured, properly maintained and have a valid MOT, vehicles are loaded safely and not overloaded, drivers do not speed or break the drivers' hours rules and the operator does not break safety rules.
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 can recruit planners, supervisors and the transport manager together, timed to the contract start.
Good systems, sensible hours, a manager who trusts the plan and pay in line with the market.
