Shipping, logistics and freight specialist SDW Recruitment has launched logisticsjobsuk.co.uk, a niche board for the logistics sector.

The logistics industry currently employs nearly 2.4 million people in the UK, with this figure rapidly increasing as developments such as the London Gateway port continue.

SDW director Steve Wyeth says: “With logisticsjobsuk all candidates are screened before they are added to the site and able to apply for live positions advertised by our clients.”

Candidates’ details stored on the website will be kept confidential until requested by companies.
