Whatever you need

AS&T provide experienced drivers throughout the Yorkshire

and Humber region who are capable of driving vehicles from

Heavy Goods to Vans. We are more than happy to cover short

notice, adhoc placements, but like most agents we do prefer to

offer our drivers longevity of employment which in turn builds

a stronger work force dedicated to serving your customers

correctly and without error.

We provide our client with copies of both parts of the driver’s

license before the contract commences and our drivers are

fully aware of Tacho-graph procedures.

Back up plan

Due to AS&T’s current client requirements, the AS&T resource

staff are constantly recruiting new drivers throughout the year.

Many of our existing clients work on an adhoc basis, booking

drivers daily.

To fulfil our existing clients requests, AS&T have many drivers

who are inducted at various clients, opening up a relief

pool. This ensures that all additional bookings resulting from

absence, sickness, etc are all completed.

The main supply of drivers will remain static. If AS&T recruited

and inducted 3 extra relief drivers this should cover most

eventualities within Warburtons.

What our clients say:

“We have always received a professional and rapid response to our needs and requirements, whatever the time of day from the team at AS&T and nothing is too much trouble. The quality of staff supplied has always been of a good standard, which has maintained our continued business.”

Wayne Frostick, Operations Manager, WING Nationwide Service Provider to the Care Industry

“We have been using AS&T for the past year, since using them as one of our main suppliers we have had a good relationship with their staff, which has resulted in us extending our use of their services. All requirements are met and discussed on a daily basis, the quality of the staff has been of a consistently high standard that has resulted in us employing some drivers full time from the agency. Where uniform needs are required they have also helped by supplying the necessary equipment.”

Michael Gazda, Contract Supervisor, DX Freight - B&Q Distribution Centre

“We have used AS&T Limited agency for the supply of our temporary labour requirements since they started business in Barnsley in May 2010. I have been impressed with the level of service provided by AS&T Limited during this period. Deadlines are met as well as all specifications for candidates with expert professionalism. We have regular updates and site visits to ensure the smooth running of the contract and to ensure that all our needs are met.

I would have no hesitation in recommending AS&T Limited to any other company who requires assistance with the supply of temporary labour. They have proved to be successful and dependable in the competitive recruitment business.”
