About Smartways
At Smartways, we're not just moving packages – we're saving lives. As Australasia's first 100% carbon neutral healthcare logistics company, we specialise in time-critical, complex deliveries for medical devices, pharmaceuticals, life sciences, and clinical trials. From emergency patient-on-table deliveries to temperature-controlled global shipments, our work directly impacts patient outcomes across the healthcare community.

The Role
We're seeking an experienced Driver Trainer to join our team and elevate our owner-driver fleet to the highest standards of safety, efficiency, and customer service. This pivotal role will shape the face of our company through comprehensive training and performance development.

  • Conduct bi-yearly/annual ride-alongs and on-road assessments to evaluate driving behaviour and compliance
  • Provide honest, constructive feedback that builds driver confidence and performance
  • Maintain detailed training records and audit reports to track progress
  • Engage with hospital staff and clients to gather feedback on service quality

  • Strong knowledge of transport legislation and logistics best practices
  • Excellent communication skills with the ability to instruct and influence others
  • Capability to deliver frank, respectful feedback that drives improvement
  • Competency with telematics, in-cab systems, and basic office software
  • High level of integrity, patience, and professionalism
  • Training certification or adult education qualifications (preferred but not essential)

The Ideal Candidate
You're someone who understands that different people learn differently. You have a passion for coaching and can adapt your training methods accordingly. Your perfectionism ensures all drivers meet the Smartways standard, while your customer-centric mindset keeps our service promise front and centre. Above all, you champion safety and continuous improvement in everything you do.

Why Join Us?
