Work For HGV Consultants
HGV Consultants are always looking for suitably qualified transport managers for businesses in Leicester, Derby, Nottingham and throughout the East Midlands.
We are always on the lookout for qualified CPC holders – we often get requests from companies who need a transport manager, this could be as a temporary measure or as a full time role.
We are able to put you in touch with an experienced transport manager to enable your company to obtain their ‘O’ license and run the operation legally.
We are also able to complete all the documentation necessary to assist you to obtain your ‘O’ license, subject to a small fee.
If you choose HGV Consultants to assist you in completing the application we will complete all paperwork including advertisements and advise you regarding suitable operating centre.
It normally takes around 10 weeks to fully process the license with the traffic commissioner’s office. We will manage the application from start to finish.
We are unable to guarantee that an application is granted, that decision is down to the Traffic Commissioner, however we will do our best to assist you in making sure everything is correct before you submit your application.
External Transport Managers
The law requires that before an operator’s license is granted the operator must have in place a suitably qualified and experienced CPC holder (this is not the same as the drivers CPC).
It is also a requirement of the law that any transport company who undertakes transport operations for hire or reward and runs vehicle with GVW exceeding 3.5tonnes requires an operator’s license, either national or internationally.
For smaller companies it is not financially viable to employ a full time transport manager so many companies employ the service of an external transport manager and this is where we come into play.
An external transport manager will visit your company in order to ensure compliance with the laws relating to road transport. These will include ensuring your drivers are properly qualified (DQC, DL, Digi Tacho card, etc). Checking drivers hours be these analogue tacho graph discs or digital tacho graph data, maintenance reports, daily walk round checks, etc.
