Darwin-based | Full-time role | Civil construction projects

About the Role

DEC Installations NT Pty Ltd is seeking a hands-on HR Manual (or higher) Truck Driver to join our civil crew. This isn't a courier or delivery role — you'll be operating a range of HR vehicles (hook-lift, tilt-tray, tipper, flat-bed, water cart and hydro-vac trucks) and assisting with labouring tasks when the trucks aren't in use.

What You'll Be Doing

  • Operating HR manual or higher trucks across Darwin-based civil projects
  • Assisting the crew with trenching, concreting, and general labouring
  • Carrying out pre-start checks and keeping vehicles clean and compliant
  • Working as part of a supportive, practical team

What We Offer

  • Full-time role with steady, local work
  • Competitive hourly rate + penalties
  • Variety — truck driving and hands-on site work
  • PPE and uniforms supplied
  • Strong team culture where everyone pitches in
  • Darwin-based projects

About You

You're more than just a driver — you're reliable, safety-focused, and happy to get your hands dirty.

You'll need:

  • Current HR Manual licence or higher (HC/MC) — auto licence not accepted
  • White Card (Construction Induction)
  • Physically fit and willing to assist with labouring
  • A clean driving record

It's a bonus if you have:

  • Experience with hook-lift, tilt-tray, tippers, water carts or hydro-vac trucks
  • Forklift licence
  • Civil construction experience
