I run BA Express an authorised DHL Express service partner based at the Maidstone depot (postcode ME20 7TW). Over the next few weeks we need to add 5 self‑employed multi‑drop van drivers to our team. I’m exploring external HR / recruitment support to manage the process end‑to‑end.
Key deliverables
Draft and post adverts on Indeed, CV‑Library, Facebook Jobs, Driven People (ad budget provided).
Pro‑actively source local drivers via CV databases, LinkedIn and courier Facebook/WhatsApp groups.
Conduct 10‑minute phone screens and book depot interviews (or Zoom if remote).
Liaise with local driver agencies (Driver Hire, Best Connection, Extrastaff) to price and secure back‑up candidates.
Maintain a live Google‑Sheet pipeline with candidate status updates.
Run licence checks / right‑to‑work verification and trigger basic DBS if required.
Success measures
A robust pipeline in place within the first week.
First shortlist of interview‑ready drivers delivered within 7–10 days.
Continuous flow until all six roles are filled (goal: within 2–4 weeks).
Tools we provide • Indeed employer login and £200 starter ad budget. • Company email address and WhatsApp number for candidate comms. • Shared Google drive for CVs and tracker.
