Whatever is on your licence, there is usually work for it around North Killingholme. WSUK places Class 1, Class 2, 7.5t and van drivers at depots near North Killingholme — days, nights and trunking — on weekly PAYE pay with no fee to you.
Driving jobs around North Killingholme run across four licence categories: van (B), 7.5 tonne (C1), Class 2 rigid (C) and Class 1 articulated (C+E). Rates near North Killingholme 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.

North Killingholme is the riverside edge of the Killingholme industrial belt, where Humber Sea Terminal at North Killingholme Haven runs roll-on/roll-off berths opened in stages from 2000. Inland lies the Lindsey Oil Refinery site, built in 1968 and bought by Phillips 66 in early 2026 after its previous owner's insolvency, next to the long-established Humber Refinery and the Killingholme power stations. About half the parish is in industrial or logistics use, served by rail sidings linked to the Immingham freight network and by the A160 to the A180. Trailer, unit-load and energy-sector traffic dominates, with farmland and nature reserves filling the gaps towards East Halton and South Killingholme. Immingham Dock lies a short drive south-east, and Ulceby station on the Barton line is the nearest passenger rail stop for the terminal.
Ro-ro sailing schedules and trailer volumes drive day-to-day handling needs, while the future use of the Lindsey site and refinery maintenance programmes create bursts of industrial project work. 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 North Killingholme and North Lincolnshire, for operators around Humber Sea Terminal, the Lindsey refinery site and the Killingholme power stations and drivers based in East Halton, Ulceby, Immingham and Barrow upon Humber. 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.
We are a logistics operator as well as an agency, so we know what the run actually is before we put you in the cab.

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 North Killingholme we recruit across all four categories and will tell you what is actually live.
Usually yes. Most of what we place around North Killingholme 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.
