Planners who cut empty miles and managers who keep the operator's licence safe, recruited for Saffron Walden fleets.
A permanent transport hire should make the operation cheaper to run and easier to keep compliant.
Transport employers across the East of England include port and container logistics, customs and forwarding businesses, FMCG and agri-food supply chains and national 3PLs. Each plans a different kind of work, so we recruit to the network rather than the title.
A planner who leaves after a few months takes the knowledge of your routes and customers with them. Getting the hire right protects both.
Operators at sites such as the A14 and A11 corridors, the Port of Felixstowe and Stansted airfreight compete for the same experienced planners, which is why pay moves quickly.
Permanent transport roles matched to fleet size, network and systems.
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 benchmark salary, on-call pay and bonus against the local market before the role goes out.
Indicative permanent salaries in Saffron Walden 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.
Planners and managers who are looking and those who are not, approached with the details that matter to them.
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.
An operator with a standard licence needs a transport manager. Continuity in that role keeps compliance steady.
Many transport managers started as planners. We recruit for both steps of that career.
