Hoo & Grain sits within Medway & North Kent's logistics network, with warehousing and transport operations around London Thamesport, Grain LNG and the Isle of Grain aggregates terminal. WSUK supplies vetted, referenced logistics staff — drivers, warehouse operatives, FLT operators, planners and managers — on permanent and contract terms, from single vacancies to volume-hiring campaigns.
WSUK recruits logistics staff for Hoo & Grain employers — HGV (C+E/C) and van drivers, warehouse operatives, FLT operators, transport planners, supervisors and operations managers — on permanent and contract terms, for single vacancies or high-volume campaigns. From sites around London Thamesport, Grain LNG and the Isle of Grain aggregates terminal to operations reached via A228 to M2 J1, we deliver vetted, referenced shortlists.
The Isle of Grain, at the eastern tip of the Hoo Peninsula where the Medway meets the Thames, is one of the most heavily industrialised corners of Kent. London Thamesport, a Hutchison Ports container and bulk terminal on the site of the former BP refinery, sits beside Grain LNG, described as Europe's largest LNG regasification terminal, and a gas-fired power station. Much of the old refinery land is still undeveloped and carries outline permission for around five million square feet of logistics-related buildings, while a cement storage facility has been proposed at the port. The A228 runs west from Grain through Stoke and past Hoo St Werburgh to Strood and the M2. The freight-only Hundred of Hoo Railway joins the North Kent Line at Hoo Junction and serves an aggregates terminal on Grain, making this an energy, bulk and port corridor rather than a parcel hub.
On Grain, demand moves with shipping schedules at Thamesport, planned maintenance and shutdown work at the LNG terminal and power station, and progress on logistics and materials schemes on the former refinery land. For employers that means competing for the same drivers, operatives and supervisors, so filling roles and keeping people are both real challenges. WSUK recruits Class 1 and Class 2 drivers, van drivers, warehouse pickers, packers and loaders, FLT and VNA operators, transport planners, shift supervisors and operations managers on permanent and contract terms — handling single specialist vacancies and high-volume campaigns through one accountable contact.
