The local market

What the register says about Wakefield

Wakefield sits in West Yorkshire. The sponsors here are mostly in social care and care homes, then health care, retail, it, software and media. Of the 174 licensed sponsors here, the ones who take on HGV drivers are the ones worth approaching first.

What they do

Licensed sponsors in Wakefield, by industry

Within reach

Sponsors in the towns around Wakefield

A driver or a fitter will travel for the right job, so these count too. The number is licensed sponsors in that town.

How we fill it

Trade tested, paperwork handled, fixed fee

1. The test

Practical drive with a qualified assessor, reversing and coupling, a walk-round check, and the licence conversion route confirmed for your country before you travel. In Johannesburg, Manila or a partner centre, before anyone travels. You get the score sheet.

How the test is run

2. The paperwork

Certificate of Sponsorship, visa application, right to work checks, with you at every step. No licence yet? We walk you through the application.

3. The landing

Flights, accommodation, NI number, bank account and phone sorted, and someone checking in with them after they start, so they stay.

4. The fee

A fixed fee per placement, invoiced when they start. No retainer, no startup fee, and nothing is ever charged to the candidate.

For employers in Wakefield

Tell us how many hgv drivers you need and when

A recruiter rings you back within one working day with candidates we already have trade tested, the sponsorship timeline as it stands, and a fixed fee. No retainer, nothing charged to the candidate, and nothing to sign until you have seen people.

How it works first

For candidates

What you need to work here

  • A confirmed job offer from a UK employer that holds a Home Office sponsor licence. The employers in this directory all hold one.
  • A Certificate of Sponsorship from that employer describing the role.
  • A job on the Home Office list of eligible occupations, paid at least the minimum salary for that role and route.

After they land

What we give the person you hire

Free, and not conditional on anything. A placement that fails usually fails in the first month, and it is rarely about the work.

Settling in WakefieldThe paperwork in order, the official finders for a doctor and a National Insurance number, and the local shops, places of worship and clubs other workers there have added.Their rights at work, in writingWe tell every candidate exactly what they are owed and who enforces it. An employer with nothing to hide gains from that.Free practice testsEnglish and the rules of the road, so a driver arrives knowing which side and which limits, not learning them on your insurance.
