• A strong focus on health and safety at all times
• Flexibility with working hours, including early starts or short-notice shifts
• Basic technology skills, including the ability to use apps on your phone

Experience & qualifications

• Class 5 licence (Forklift OSH and F endorsement preferred but not essential)
• A minimum of 2 years’ truck and trailer driving experience
• Experience loading and transporting bins and/or palletised goods would be beneficial
• A sound understanding of legal loading capacities and heavy vehicle requirements

Pre-employment checks

This is a safety-sensitive role. The preferred candidate will be required to:

• Pass a pre-employment drug test
• Complete a driving assessment to confirm capability and suitability
