The equipment is not the compromise
Average unit age under three years, serviced on condition rather than on the calendar. Unplanned roadside events fell sixty-one percent when we moved to telemetry — that is fewer nights stuck on a hard shoulder.
Most transport recruitment promises a family atmosphere and a modern fleet. Here is what we will actually commit to in writing: rosters built from real driving hours, weekend home time on long-haul, vehicles serviced before they fail, and a dispatcher who picks up.

Lanes are rostered against real receiving windows and real driving hours. If a round trip does not fit inside legal hours, we do not sell it. Weekend home time on long-haul is in the contract, not in the goodwill.
Every driver has a named dispatcher who knows the lane and the site. No ticket queue, no call centre, and an incident call within fifteen minutes whether the problem is the vehicle or the customer.
CPC renewal, ADR, forklift and reefer certification are paid for and rostered inside working time. Nobody here does their qualifications on a Saturday at their own expense.
Cab // Under 3 years old Rennes to the Benelux, Germany and northern Italy on scheduled lanes. Four nights out, home every weekend, on units under three years old.
Day work on fixed customer rounds. Home every night, no weekend operation, tail-lift and reefer work.
Own a set of lanes and the customers on them. You plan the week, roster against berth and receiving windows, and make the call when a corridor turns.
Receiving, picking and dispatch in an automated hub running around the clock. Forklift certification provided if you do not have it.
Condition-based servicing on a connected fleet. You work from telemetry rather than a calendar, and you have the authority to override the model when the vehicle tells you otherwise.
CV or a short email saying what you drive and where you want to run. Two paragraphs is plenty.
A call with the exploitation manager within five working days, then a visit to the yard so you see the units and the workshop before deciding anything.
A paid day on the lane you would actually work, with the driver who works it now. You judge us at the same time as we judge you.
Openings appear on short notice in this industry. We keep applications for two years and call people back in the order they arrived.
