Class 5 driver (regional)

Annual holidays provided through the employment arrangement. The hiring business is responsible for the employment agreement, pay and leave.

We need an experienced Class 5 driver to join our Pandora, Napier fleet. Runs are planned with proper rest in mind; we don't push drivers past their hours. You'll work the night linehaul, 7pm to 5am, Monday to Friday. Guaranteed 48 hours a week, with overtime available. Pay is $34.00 an hour. Annual leave and public holidays apply. Night shift suits people who like a quieter site and their days free. We're after a careful, professional driver who understands load restraint and fatigue rules. Bring your class 5 licence; we'll verify it at the interview. Applicants need the right to work in New Zealand and two work references. Modern site with good facilities and a staff kitchen. Paid training and a proper induction before you start. Interviews are being held this week, so don't wait to apply.
