Planners who cut empty miles and managers who keep the operator's licence safe, recruited for Montrose fleets.
Strong planners are rarely out of work, so the search reaches people who are not looking.
The market around Montrose is anchored by Dundee and the Fife industrial estates, with the M90 giving quick reach to Edinburgh and beyond. Across Tayside & Fife, transport offices at sites such as Glenrothes and Dunfermline industrial estates and the A90 corridor need planners who know the roads and the customers.
Taking on a new contract? We can recruit the planners and the transport manager together so the traffic office is ready on day one.
Transport demand across Tayside & Fife follows food and drink manufacturing, soft-fruit and agri-food distribution, life sciences and regional 3PLs.
Transport roles for trunking, multi-drop, pallet network and dedicated operations.
The Transport Manager CPC and any other qualifications the role needs are confirmed before a candidate reaches your shortlist.
Night planning, on-call and weekend cover are discussed up front, so the candidate knows the job they are taking.
We keep in touch through notice periods and the first months, while a new planner learns your customers.
Indicative permanent salaries in Montrose run from around £28k for planners up to £55k+ for senior transport managers.
Transport office pay in Scotland moves with the size of the fleet, the network and the hours: night planning and on-call usually pay more. Figures are indicative, not a guarantee.
Fleet size, network, systems, hours and the problem the new hire needs to solve.
Planners and managers who are looking and those who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
We arrange interviews and any planning exercise, then brief each candidate beforehand.
Interim cover suits a short gap. A permanent hire is the answer when the office needs someone to own the plan.
Strong planners value good systems, a manager who backs their decisions and customers who plan ahead.
