About the Opportunities
With 14 plants across Melbourne and a constant influx of work, Hanson is always on the lookout for motivated people to join the business.
Multiple opportunities now exist for Truck Drivers to join the Melbourne metro team.
Hanson Truck Drivers are primarily responsible for driving Concrete Agitators across metro Melbourne, performing multiple concrete deliveries each day. Key duties also include customer interaction while waiting for concrete to be unloaded, concrete slumping and pre-start vehicle checks.
These are full-time positions, working Monday - Friday, plus shortened Saturday hours. Daily start times will differ dependent upon scheduled work - flexibility will be required.
About You
Successful candidates will hold a current HR License, while an HC License will be highly regarded. Concrete Agitator experience is not required - extensive training will be provided.
You will however, require the following:
- Demonstrated experience driving a heavy rigid vehicle;
- Punctuality and a willingness to work the required hours, including frequent overtime;
- A strong work ethic and dedication to getting the job done;
- Basic mechanical knowledge (e.g. the ability to read and understand dash gauges);
- An understanding of heavy vehicle fatigue management; and
- A commitment to safety.
As this position involves a fair amount of wait time while concrete is used for each site job, it's important you be comfortable communicating with customers, workers and other stakeholders.
This role will be well suited to individuals looking to increase their income with extended overtime, or who simply enjoy being on the road day to day.
About the Benefits
This is a fantastic opportunity to join the #1 employer of Agitator Drivers in Australia, becoming an integral member of their high performing team. At Hanson, you're not just another number. You'll be appreciated and rewarded for your hard work.
You'll work with a new, reliable truck fleet that's kitted out with the best technology, and will benefit from full organisational support with any maintenance or work the trucks need.
To ensure you enter the role with strong skills and confidence, Hanson provides a comprehensive 10-day training program, as well as ongoing up-skilling sessions.
In return for your hard work and dedication, you will be rewarded with a competitive hourly rate circa $24.65 (due to increase in the coming financial year). You will also enjoy ample opportunity for overtime (time and a half, and double time rates) to increase your take home pay! A daily meal allowance of $13.77 will be provided, along with monthly RDOs and a yearly bonus.
Furthermore, you will receive the job security and stability that is only available with an industry leader that experiences constant incoming work. Opportunities exist to progress within the company, with the ability to grow your role into management or other areas of interest within Hanson - it's no wonder the company experiences great tenure of staff.
