How our service works

Consultation & Review

We start with a short discussion about your business, vehicle operations, and Operator Licence requirements. Whether you’re based in Nottingham, Derby, or Chesterfield, we’ll review your setup and identify exactly what level of CPC cover or support you need.

Appointment & Implimentation

Once agreed, we’ll be formally appointed as your external CPC Transport Manager with the Traffic Commissioner. We’ll then review your existing systems — such as maintenance records, driver files, and tachograph data — to ensure everything is in line with O-Licence obligations.

Ongoing oversight & Support

We provide ongoing oversight and straightforward compliance advice. Our role is to make sure your transport documentation, record keeping, and procedures remain up to standard, giving you confidence that your operation is fully compliant and audit-ready.

Why CPC Transport Manager Cover Matters

Every Operator Licence must have a named professionally competent Transport Manager.


If this person becomes unavailable, you only have
28 days to appoint a replacement — otherwise, you risk enforcement action from the Traffic Commissioner.


Using a qualified, experienced external CPC Transport Manager ensures:


       ✔️ Continuous compliance with your O-Licence conditions

       ✔️ No interruption to your waste, skip hire, or transport operations

       ✔️ Professional oversight and record keeping

       ✔️ Peace of mind while you recruit or train internally


We work with operators throughout Nottinghamshire, Derbyshire, and South Yorkshire, helping them stay on top of changing compliance expectations.

  • Who needs a CPC Transport Manager?

    Describe the item or answer the question so that site visitors who are interested get more information. You can emphasize this text with bullets, italics or bold, and add links.
  • What happens if my Transport Manager leaves or is unavailable?

    Any business operating vehicles over 3.5 tonnes for hire or reward under a Standard National or Standard International Operator Licence must have a qualified CPC Transport Manager in place. This applies whether you run one lorry or a full fleet. If you only have one vehicle but it requires an O-Licence, you still need a Transport Manager to meet the Traffic Commissioner’s compliance requirements.

  • How quickly can you provide CPC cover?

    We can usually provide cover within a week, depending on your location and the details of your licence. We support operators across Nottingham, Derby, Chesterfield, and the wider Midlands.

  • Do I need a Transport Manager for one lorry?

    Yes — even if your business only operates a single HGV, you still need a professionally competent Transport Manager named on your O-Licence. We provide flexible CPC Transport Manager cover across Nottingham, Derby, and Chesterfield to ensure you stay compliant without needing to employ someone full-time.

  • How much does it cost to hire a Transport Manager?

    Costs depend on your fleet size, the number of operating centres, and the level of oversight required. External CPC Transport Manager cover is usually more cost-effective than employing a full-time manager.
