Pure Staff's Driving Team Recruitment
Pure Staff's Driving Team are currently recruiting experienced HGV Class 1 Drivers to support one of our long-standing customers based in Hereford. Immediate starts are available for reliable HGV Class 1 Drivers looking for consistent ongoing work with one of the UK's leading logistics and distribution companies. Whether you're looking for full-time work, part-time hours, tramping or regular day shifts, we'd love to hear from you.
About the Company
Our customer is one of the UK's largest privately owned transport and logistics businesses, providing nationwide distribution, warehousing and supply chain solutions for many of the country's best-known retailers, manufacturers and food producers. Operating a modern fleet from a nationwide network of depots, they have built an excellent reputation for investing in its people, maintaining high safety standards and delivering reliable logistics services across the UK.
Flexibility and Working Patterns
One of the biggest advantages of this contract is its flexibility. We understand that not every HGV Class 1 Driver wants the same working pattern, which is why we work closely with both our drivers and our customer to accommodate individual preferences wherever possible.
Whether you prefer day shifts, night shifts, tramping with paid night-out allowance, 'in and out' shifts with no nights away, weekdays only, weekends only or a mixture of both, we'll discuss your availability during registration and do our best to build work around your preferred schedule. Some drivers choose to work Monday to Friday, whilst others prefer just two or three shifts per week or specific days that fit around family life or other commitments.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.

Typical work involves transporting palletised goods using modern articulated vehicles, with most routes consisting of 1 to 3 deliveries per shift. Average shift lengths are 8 to 10 hours, with occasional 12-hour shifts depending on the route. This is genuine ongoing work, and reliable drivers quickly become regular members of the driving team with excellent opportunities to secure permanent employment.
