Lisa MaCrae owner of the East Kilbride franchise of leading driver employment agency, Driver Hire, has won a prestigious Gold Award for the outstanding sales performance achieved by her office during financial year 2024/25.

The UK’s largest specialist supplier, Driver Hire provides temporary and permanent drivers and other logistics staff to local and national organisations in both the public and private sector. If they’re short of staff – perhaps because of illness, holidays or seasonal demand – Driver Hire will supply them with a suitable replacement.

“Driver Hire supplies quality staff to all its customers,” says Lisa. “Road transport and logistics is a highly regulated industry. As a result, more and more businesses are recognising the value of working with a 100% reliable supplier for all their recruitment requirements. When it comes to customer service, because we’re a franchise, we offer them the benefits of working with a local, owner-managed business, backed by the resources of a major national company. We also offer the flexibility in terms of workforce that organisations need when the economy is so unpredictable.”

Commenting on the award, Chris Chidley, Driver Hire’s Chief Executive, said, “This is a performance to be proud of, achieved in what are uncertain times. Lisa and her team at East Kilbride are to be congratulated on their success. It’s a result of their hard work, endeavour and the first rate, round the clock service they and their drivers deliver.”
