Where we staff
The work follows the M1. East Midlands Gateway sits by junction 24 next to the airport cargo operation at Castle Donington. Magna Park at Lutterworth is near junction 20, and Hinckley sits on the M69 and the A5.
Further north, sites around junctions 27 and 28 on the Nottinghamshire and Derbyshire border and Markham Vale at junction 29A serve Ashfield, Mansfield and Bolsover. Leicester, Derby and Nottingham each have their own estates closer in.
Many sites here are outside town, so we confirm each person's journey before booking, above all for nights.

Our checks
Nobody is put forward until right to work, references and any licence have been checked.
Right to work checked against original documents or the Home Office online service before the first shift.
Identity and references photo ID seen, and work references taken up.
Lift truck certificates for forklift and reach roles, a current certificate from a recognised body such as RTITB, AITT, ITSSAR or NPORS, with a copy kept on file.
Your site rules safety footwear, hi vis, induction times and any site specific training agreed with you at booking.
Three counties, one labour market
A forklift driver living in Loughborough might work at East Midlands Gateway one month and Magna Park the next. Sites along the M1 compete hard for the same people, especially from autumn into Christmas. We place staff where the journey works for them, because that is what keeps them turning up.
