A more flexible way to hire drivers
McRoberts helps transport operators hire drivers in a way that fits their needs.
Some clients want a simple job listing that delivers screened candidates. Some want to increase candidate volume with extra promotion. Others want a fully managed recruitment marketing campaign built around their brand, roles and hiring process.
Whichever route you choose, the aim is the same: better-quality candidates, the right volume, in the right locations, with clearer expectations from the start.
What McRoberts helps you achieve
1. Better candidate quality
Candidates are screened before they reach you, helping reduce poor-fit applications.
Matthew Bryant, Head of Operations, Newport Bus
"We've brought on 222% more drivers in the first quarter working with McRoberts. We're spending time onboarding and training people who are going to stick, not chasing people or dealing with no-shows. The quality of applicants coming through has been consistently high."
Trusted by transport and logistics operators
Tristan Davis, Head of Recruitment, First Bus London
"At our peak we have been hiring 60 new drivers per month with McRoberts - the results have been exceptional. But beyond the results, the level of customer services is beyond anything else I've seen or expected."
Domonic Barber, Operations Lead, Airparks
"Since partnering with McRoberts to recruit PCV Drivers and Shift Managers we’ve stopped hiring agency staff altogether, which has not only reduced our costs, it has also improved our team culture, and our customer service has got better too."
