SUFONIQ

For European transport employers

Find experienced truck drivers for your fleet.

An unfilled driver role puts pressure on your routes, schedules and the team covering them. Sufoniq sources and screens international truck drivers for your fleet, with experience, availability and qualification steps made clear before you decide whom to interview.

Before your interviews

Spend your interview time on candidates who fit the work.

You need more than a licence category on a CV. We screen against the driving work, discuss your terms with candidates and record the questions your team needs answered before hiring.

Experience that fits your fleet

Vehicle and trailer types, freight handled, route history and employment evidence considered against the work you need done.

Interest in the actual job

Your pay, routes, working pattern and language needs discussed with candidates, with interest and availability recorded.

Qualification status made clear

Existing licence and professional qualification documents listed separately from the checks, training or permissions still needed.

Experience and readiness

See what is ready—and what still needs to happen.

With each introduction, receive a summary of the driver’s relevant experience, interest in your terms and stated availability, alongside completed and outstanding checks. Your team can see the basis for the introduction and what still needs resolving.

Full candidate information is shared privately, with consent and current availability confirmed.

Drivers with the required credentials

Confirm the relevant licence, professional qualification, current validity and right to work for the destination before agreeing a driving start.

Drivers who need qualification steps

Identify what must be completed, who will provide training and whether your business can support the preparation. Freight experience alone does not establish permission to drive professionally.

Germany: an employer-supported qualification route

For eligible non-EU drivers who need German licensing or professional qualification, an employer-supported route may combine qualification measures with other permitted work. It requires employment approval, a relevant existing foreign licence and a driving job with the same employer after qualification. The qualifying conditions and training arrangements must be confirmed for the individual case.

During this qualification period, the person cannot work as a professional driver. This is a German route, not an EU-wide permission.

About Sufoniq
Do candidates already have an EU licence and Code 95?

Qualification status is assessed for each candidate. A non-EU heavy-vehicle licence or freight experience is not presented as EU driving authorization. The introduction identifies the documents held, checks completed and any licence or professional qualification steps still to resolve.

Is this service only for German employers?

Our driver-recruitment service is for European transport employers. We plan around your hiring country and each candidate’s situation. The German qualification route described here is one country-specific option; licence, qualification and immigration requirements are checked for the destination.

How soon can a driver start?

We distinguish candidate availability from permission to start driving. Timing depends on the destination, current licence and qualifications, application steps and training needs. Share your preferred date so we can discuss whether the preparation can fit it.

What does screening cover?

We agree the evidence to collect and the experience and language to assess against your brief. Candidate notes cover relevant vehicle and route experience, interest in the working terms, availability and outstanding checks. Practical driving assessments, reference checks and document verification are specified in the scope when included.

Can we recruit one or two drivers?

Yes, you can start the conversation with one vacancy or a larger requirement. We discuss the work, sourcing approach and commercial terms for your headcount.

Who handles permits and qualification training?

We set out the employer, candidate and Sufoniq responsibilities in the proposal. The proposal also identifies any training provision or specialist advice the assignment needs and who arranges it. Authorities and competent bodies make the relevant decisions.

What does Sufoniq charge?

Fees are quoted for the agreed sourcing, screening and coordination work. The proposal sets out service fees and how training, official and other third-party costs are handled. Sufoniq does not charge candidates recruitment fees.

Can we see full CVs and candidate documents?

Relevant information is shared privately with candidate consent and subject to current availability. Your first enquiry should describe the vacancy, not include candidate names, licence scans or other personal documents.
