New franchisee at Driver Hire Dundee & Perth

Jordan Tracey has bought the Dundee and Perth franchises of leading transport & logistics recruiter, Driver Hire.

The UK’s largest specialist supplier with a nationwide network of franchised offices, Driver Hire provides temporary and permanent drivers and other logistics staff to local and national organisations in both the public and private sector. If they’re short of staff – perhaps because of illness, holidays or seasonal demand – Driver Hire will supply them with a suitable replacement.

Jordan isn’t new to Driver Hire. He joined the nationwide recruitment business in 2014. Most recently he was manager at Driver Hire’s Newcastle office. He’s also an award winner; during his time with Driver Hire, Jordan has been both regional and national recruitment consultant of the year. 

“I’ve always wanted to run my own Driver Hire business,” says Jordan. “When both the Dundee and Perth territory came up for sale, it was such a great opportunity, I had to take it. As with any business, it will be a challenge, but I’ve learnt a lot about Driver Hire, recruitment and the transport sector, over the past few years. In addition, I’ve got the backing and support of one of the UK’s leading franchisors, so I’m sure I can make a success of it.” 

Jordan added: “With this Driver Hire franchise, there’s an unlimited potential for growth. I’m looking forward to working with local businesses, meeting all their transport & logistics needs.”
