Fleet Desk, for driver recruitment

Find published fleet changes near your driver network.

A vehicle needs a driver, and an operator that has applied to run more vehicles at a named site has told the regulator where those vehicles would be based.

The application names the proposed site, on a dated public record.

Agencies compete on the same job boards on the same day. An operator that applied to run more vehicles at a named site told the regulator weeks earlier, in public. Whether it turns into a vacancy is the question you ask.

The Desk gives you those sites and operators the week the application publishes. It never shows hiring. It shows the reason to ask.

Which changes matter to you

Capacity expansion

More authorised vehicles on a licence is a change in how many vehicles the operator may put on the road, and a vehicle needs a driver.

Site expansion

A site the operator has not used before is a place drivers would be based, which is worth checking against the candidates you hold in that area.

Network change

Vehicles moving between sites moves where drivers report.

Licence transfer

A Schedule 4 stage changes which licence a site sits under, not who drives from it. It is not evidence of recruitment.

A real example, read for driver recruitment

Where. Middlesbrough, TS6 6LP, North East of England

Why it may matter. More authorised vehicles on a licence is a change in how many vehicles the operator may put on the road, and a vehicle needs a driver.

Check. Which candidates you hold within reach of Middlesbrough and Scunthorpe, whether Altrad already uses an agency you know, and the objection date of 23 September 2026.

Three things to check first

Which candidates are within reach

The operating centres named, with a map link on each, against where your drivers live.

Do they already use an agency you know

It is the first question for the call.

What stage is it at

An application is not a grant. Vehicles cannot be used before a grant, and the stage is on every line.

Common questions

Does it show vacancies?

No. The licence record never does. It shows that an operator applied to run more vehicles at a named site, which is a reason to ask.

Does it name the transport manager?

Never. No person is named in any Harrier briefing. Companies and operating centres only.

What area does it cover?

Goods-vehicle operators in England and Wales, across all seven traffic areas. Choose regional coverage around a location you pick, or the full England and Wales plan.

Can I use this for sales?

Yes. The Desk names companies, never people, and uses depot addresses only. Your own marketing rules still apply, and the Desk is built to make them easy.

What does it cost?

The 14-day trial is free and needs no card. Continuing is monthly by card, cancel any time. Regional coverage is £60 a month plus VAT, £72 in total and national £150 a month plus VAT, £180 in total, an introductory price, held for twelve months.

What happens when the trial ends?

Delivery stops on day fourteen and nothing is taken. Your trial page shows the price and a continue button throughout. If you continue before the end, the free days you have left are kept and the first charge date is shown before you pay.
