Base wage starting at $76,600 - $80,000 per year, depending on skills level, plus superannuation. Overtime and penalties are available. Accommodation may be available depending on the situation.

About the role

Our client seeks a skilled and reliable Truck Driver to join a leading mixed farming enterprise in Western Australia.

The successful candidate will play a key part in maintaining the smooth operation of a large-scale farming business that prioritises sustainable and regenerative practices. This position requires a hands-on professional who is committed to safety, teamwork, and high-quality work standards. You will be responsible for operating heavy vehicles, managing loading/unloading procedures, and ensuring compliance with transport regulations. If you have experience in agricultural haulage and enjoy working in a dynamic rural environment, we encourage you to apply.

Responsibilities

• Livestock Transport & Handling: Safely operate and manoeuvre livestock trucks, ensuring proper positioning for loading and unloading cattle, sheep, and other livestock; follow animal welfare guidelines to minimise distress during transport, including appropriate penning, ventilation, and handling techniques; coordinate with farm staff to ensure livestock are loaded efficiently, with attention to breed-specific requirements (e.g., Angus cattle handling protocols).
• Loading & Unloading Procedures: Operate hydraulic lifts, ramps, and livestock crates to safely load/unload animals, ensuring smooth transitions to avoid injuries; monitor livestock behaviour during loading/unloading, adjusting techniques to maintain calm and prevent agitation; adhere to biosecurity measures by cleaning and disinfecting trailers between loads.
• Vehicle Safety & Maintenance: Conduct pre- and post-trip inspections of livestock trucks, checking brakes, flooring, gates, ventilation, and fluid levels to ensure animal safety; report mechanical issues promptly to prevent breakdowns that could jeopardise livestock welfare; ensure compliance with CoR regulations for heavy vehicle operations.
• Load Planning & Compliance: Calculate livestock weights and pen distributions to comply with road weight limits and animal density regulations; adjust partitions and bedding as needed to provide stability and comfort during transit; secure all gates and restraints to prevent shifting that could harm animals or destabilise the vehicle.
• Livestock Documentation & Traceability: Verify NLIS tags and movement documentation before transport; inspect livestock for signs of injury or illness prior to loading, reporting any concerns to farm management; obtain and file delivery dockets, ensuring accurate records for biosecurity and supply chain compliance.
• Farm Collaboration & Logistics: Coordinate with station managers, shearers, and feedlot operators to align transport schedules with mustering, sales, or processing timelines; assist with livestock yard operations when required, including drafting, weighing, or tagging animals; communicate delays or route changes due to weather or road conditions that may impact animal welfare.

Essential Requirements

• Minimum 1 year of relevant full-time experience in truck driving
• Relevant licensing and qualification
• Proven ability to operate heavy vehicles safely, perform load checks, and follow transport compliance standards
• Ability to work both independently and as part of a farming team
• Strong commitment to safety, reliability, and attention to detail

• Willingness to adapt to seasonal demands and flexible work hours
