Whatever is on your licence, there is usually work for it around Brigg. WSUK places Class 1, Class 2, 7.5t and van drivers at depots near Brigg — days, nights and trunking — on weekly PAYE pay with no fee to you.
Driving jobs around Brigg run across four licence categories: van (B), 7.5 tonne (C1), Class 2 rigid (C) and Class 1 articulated (C+E). Rates near Brigg typically run £12.71—£14.00 an hour for van work, £13.00—£15.00 for 7.5t, £16.00—£20.00 for Class 2 and £18.00—£24.00 for Class 1.

Brigg is a market town on the River Ancholme at the crossroads of the Humber's road network. It sits between M180 junctions 4 and 5, with the A15 running north to the Humber Bridge and south to Lincoln, and the A18 heading west to Scunthorpe and east past Humberside Airport. Island Carr Industrial Estate, on the south-western side of the town near the Ancholme, and the Atherton Way estate host light industry, trade counters, services and storage, and the Glanford Brigg gas-fired power station stands to the south-west. Agriculture shaped the local economy, with food processing and agricultural supply still part of the mix. Many residents commute to Scunthorpe, Immingham and Grimsby, and the town's central position makes it a practical base for work across the whole region.
Harvest and agri-food seasons, plus overflow from larger sites in Scunthorpe and on the Humber bank, set the pace of labour demand for Brigg-based businesses. Sickness, holidays, contract ramp-ups and peak seasons all outpace a fixed driver roster. WSUK fills temporary driving jobs with Class 1 (C+E) drivers for trunking and container work, Class 2 (C) drivers for rigid distribution, 7.5-tonne (C1) drivers, and van and multi-drop drivers. Every driver clears DVLA licence checks, CPC verification and right-to-work before starting, and we run PAYE payroll with tacho and working-time compliance built in.
The category on your licence decides the vehicle, but the type of work decides what the day actually looks like. These are the three shapes most driving jobs take.
Point-to-point running between depots, often overnight, usually the same route each shift. Little or no handball, predictable hours, and the bulk of Class 1 agency work.
Ten to eighty drops a shift depending on the vehicle and the round. More physical, more customer contact, and the bulk of van, 7.5t and Class 2 work.
Yard shunting on trade plates, tramping away from home for several nights, and specialist work like ADR, HIAB or container haulage that carries its own premium.
WSUK supplies temporary HGV and van drivers across Brigg and North Lincolnshire, for operators around Island Carr Industrial Estate and Atherton Way and drivers based in Broughton, Scawby, Wrawby and Barnetby. We match driver classes and shift patterns to each operator's routes, delivery windows and compliance needs.
Tell us what you hold and we will only send you work that matches it. If you are partway through upgrading — say from C to C+E — tell us that too, because a lot of operators will take a Class 2 driver now and move them onto Class 1 work when the licence lands.
Indicative PAYE rates as a guide — actual pay varies by shift, experience and site, with premiums for nights, weekends and bank holidays. Every rate we advertise is at or above the National Living Wage.
| Role | Indicative pay |
|---|---|
| Van / Multi-Drop Driver | £12.71–£14.00 / hr |
| 7.5t (C1) Driver | £13.00–£15.00 / hr |
| Class 2 (C) HGV Driver | £16.00–£20.00 / hr |
| Class 1 (C+E) HGV Driver | £18.00–£24.00 / hr |
| Transport / Traffic Supervisor | £16.00–£20.00 / hr |
Driving work suits people who want the rate their licence is worth, some control over the shifts they take, and to be paid properly through PAYE rather than pushed into a scheme.

It depends on what sits nearby. Areas with big distribution sheds generate trunking and Class 1 work, while towns with retail and wholesale depots generate more multi-drop on 7.5t and Class 2. Around Brigg we recruit across all four categories and will tell you what is actually live.
Usually yes. Most of what we place around Brigg is day work or night trunking that returns to the same depot, so you are home between shifts. Tramping roles that involve nights out exist too, but we only put you forward for them if you have said you want them.
Category B (a standard car licence) covers vans up to 3.5t. C1 covers 3.5—7.5t. C covers rigids over 3.5t, which the industry calls Class 2. C+E covers articulated and drawbar, which the industry calls Class 1. Anything above 3.5t driven commercially also needs a Driver CPC and a digital tachograph card.
Van and multi-drop work is typically £12.71—£14.00 an hour, 7.5t £13.00—£15.00, Class 2 £16.00—£20.00 and Class 1 £18.00—£24.00. Nights, weekends and bank holidays usually pay more, and ADR or HIAB work carries its own premium.
Yes, for any commercial driving above 3.5 tonnes. You need 35 hours of periodic training every five years to keep it valid. Since the rules split, National Driver CPC covers UK-only driving while International Driver CPC is needed if you drive commercially into Europe.
