RECRUITMENT FIRM LAUNCHES DRIVE FOR NEW FORKLIFT DRIVERS

9th September 2020

 

A Derby-based recruitment firm is aiming to create new jobs after launching a search to fill a shortage in forklift drivers.

Sky Recruitment Solutions, based on The Strand, has been a specialist provider of staff for industrial roles at all levels since 2014.

The company is working with its clients to to offer training to standard warehouse workers to get their FLT licences.

Managing director David Torrington said: Forklift training could take just three to six days and costs from £200 to £700 – and once qualified, a forklift operator can add to his basic wage with plenty of overtime and expect to earn in excess of £500 a week.

If we had 40 qualified forklift drivers walk through our door today, we could get every one of them to work within seven days.
