Hc Trailer Driver

We are seeking a HC driver experienced with tautliners, refrigerated pans and Skel Trailers for a full time position based from either our Rocklea or Lytton depots. We actively pursue diversity in our recruitment and encourage applicants from all genders and backgrounds to apply. This is a newly created role due to unexpected growth in our unpack and redeliver business stream

We're looking for enthusiasm, a desire to become a valued member of a team and someone who values and appreciates ongoing job security. We recognise that we ALL contribute to the company's success - our business grows because we work together effectively and we keep our customers happy.

We operate primarily in the SE corner of Queensland but every day can be slightly different. We treat you like an adult and let you get on with it. See the info below and if it sounds like something that interests you then get in touch

To be considered for this role here’s what you’re offering us:

- **Experience as a HC driver; MC would be advantageous but not necessary
**Solid knowledge of Brisbane, Gold & Sunny Coasts
**A good driving record although there may have been a few mishaps along the way (we've all done it).
**Road ranger gearbox experience - you will be driving a manual truck so please if you only have an auto licence do not apply
**Ability to cope with change - not everything goes as planned - weather/customers/illness - many things occur outside our control, work with the change
**Commitment to vehicle maintenance and safety - daily checks of the equipment you're using and prompt reporting of issues
**A commitment to customer service & a positive working attitude. We get GOOD feedback on our staff and we want to keep it that way
**You’re a good communicator - we’re not mind readers - tell us the issue, problem or challenge and we’ll work with you to sort it
**You have initiative and aren’t afraid to use it - don’t tell us when you’re 100kms away you have a flat tyre and expect us to sort it without your input. This only works when we work as a team.
**You’re a team player - no one is above the business. We all contribute to its success.

What we’re offering:

- **A full-time role

**Delivery and collection of containers from container parks to our customers or to our storage yard

**Tautliner deliveries of loose cargo from our warehouses to our customers.

**Refrigerated Pan deliveries to Coles, Woolworths, Aldi & Costco

**We will consider a Job Share role - part-time options are available - we are flexible and reasonable
**You can be based from our Lytton OR our Rocklea depot depending on where you live and what works for you. Flexibility in our approach to all our staff has been one of the keys to our success
**Flexible shifts available. We are almost 24/7 so can work around family/carer commitments, study and other issues
**Make no mistake, we are busy so ongoing job security is guaranteed
**Majority of our work is SE Queensland so no long distance. We do have customers further afield but this would be your choice
**Variety - no chance to get bored of the same old same old
**Everyone makes a contribution - we don’t know it all - if you know a better way then tell us we want to hear it
**Safe work practices - trucks & trailers that are serviced regularly by qualified people, tyres that are changed regularly to ensure driver safety at all times. NO corner cutting
**Driving either a Kenworth or a Western Star - manual; air-conditioned; excellent stereos
**We WILL train you and offer you longevity of employment. You will make mistakes and that's ok - no one is a great driver from the get-go
**Option to be trained on sidelifters and container forklift if interested

What else do we expect:

- **Plenty of people commit to an interview and then a get a better offer and cancel at late notice. If you are interviewing for other jobs, please tell us, our time is precious as well. Your late cancellation means someone else has missed that interview spot.
**The truth - don’t tell us what you think we want to hear - if you only want to work 40 hours a week then tell us - it will NOT be a problem
**We hire adults not children - be a grown-up & take responsibility for your actions
**Follow COVID-safe practices at all times - face masks, hygiene, social distancing whenever possible or whatever the situation demands

We look forward to talking with you soon
