At the heart of our business is a team that truly understands transport and logistics — not just on paper, but through years of real-world experience. We work closely with HGV drivers and transport teams across the North West, helping the transport business stay compliant, safe, and properly staffed. Everything we do is built on clear communication, accountability, and practical support that actually makes a difference on the road and in the depot.
Lindsey Thompson
Lindsey Thompson leads the business with more than 20 years of experience in HGV and logistics recruitment. She has spent her career working directly with drivers, transport managers, and operators, so she understands the pressures of the industry from every angle — from compliance and safety to reliability and performance.
Alongside her recruitment background, Lindsey holds CPC (Certificate of Professional Competence) qualifications, having worked in a busy transport team for a number of years she understands transport legislation and day-to-day operational requirements. This means she doesn’t just place HGV Drivers into roles — she ensures they’re the right fit for the job, the standards, and the regulations that matter to transport businesses.
Lindsey takes a hands-on approach to leadership, setting clear expectations and maintaining high standards across the agency. Under her guidance, policies are practical, compliance is taken seriously, and continuous improvement is part of everyday work — ensuring both clients and drivers receive a reliable, professional service they can trust.
