We are seeking a skilled and reliable Livestock Transport Specialist to join our team.

About the Role:

This role involves transporting livestock and other agricultural products across multiple farm sites, ensuring safe and efficient delivery. 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.

Responsibilities:
  • 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;
  • 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;
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;
Desirable Attributes:
  • Familiarity with regenerative farming practices;
  • Experience in mixed farming (livestock and cropping operations);
  • Willingness to adapt to seasonal demands and flexible work hours;

To apply, please submit your resume and a brief cover letter outlining your experience.
