Completing pre-start checks and ensuring your vehicle is presented to a high standard.

Working safely and following company and customer procedures at all times, as well as all vehicles regulations and transport legislation.

What we're looking for

A current New Zealand Class 5 Driver Licence.

A minimum of 3 years relevant Class 5 heavy transport driving experience is required.

Forklift licence and OSH endorsement (advantageous but not essential).

Confidence using technology and learning new systems.

A strong commitment to health and safety.

Great customer service and communication skills.

Pride in maintaining your truck and equipment.

Reliability, punctuality and a positive, team-focused attitude.

$30 to $35 per hour

Ready to get behind the wheel?
