Transport Planning Recruitment in Wokingham

Permanent transport planners, schedulers and CPC-qualified transport managers for operators in Wokingham.

South East

Traffic office hiring across Wokingham

A permanent transport hire should make the operation cheaper to run and easier to keep compliant.

Transport vacancies across the South East come from Channel-port and customs operators, chilled grocery distribution, aerospace supply chains and regional carriers. Each needs people who can plan for cost and compliance at once.

Trunking networks, multi-drop rounds and dedicated contracts need different planners. We recruit each one differently.

Transport office roles across the South East are spread across operators at sites such as the M3, M4 and M20 corridors and the airfreight hubs at Gatwick and Heathrow.

The hours that fit

Transport FAQs

Questions, answered

How do you check transport candidates?

We confirm qualifications such as the Transport Manager CPC, check right to work and ask about the fleets, networks and systems they have run.

Can you recruit night planners?

Yes. Tell us the hours and the network so we approach planners who want night work and have done it before.

Do you also recruit drivers?

Yes. Our driver desk recruits permanent HGV and LGV drivers and our temporary driving desk supplies cover.

I am a transport planner. How do I find my next role?

Upload your CV and tell us the fleet size, network and systems you know. We contact you when a permanent role fits.

What is the difference between an internal and an external transport manager?

GOV.UK describes an internal transport manager as employed by a single operator and an external transport manager as a freelance manager working for more than one operator.
