An established South Australian vegetable producer that supplies supermarket chains, independent stores and export customers wants to add several MC truck drivers to its transport team on permanent full time terms. The business grows and packs carrots, onions and potatoes, and these drivers keep produce moving between its growing and packing operations.
The employer needs licensed, experienced heavy vehicle operators who will answer to the Transport Manager and take on a mix of transport work. Drivers are stationed at a regional site in South Australia, so moving there is part of taking the job.
The business holds approved sponsor status and will consider suitably qualified applicants who need a visa.
