Good gear, good people, and home every night.
If you're an experienced HR driver who takes pride in your work, you'll know the difference between a job that just keeps you busy and one that treats you properly.
We're after drivers who want the second kind.
We look after our trucks, and we look after our drivers.
In return, we're looking for people who'll do the same.

What the Job Actually Involves
This is a pickup and delivery role across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast, running out of our Kunda Park depot.
You'll be on the road for most of the day, but it's not just driving.
You'll be loading and unloading, organising your run, using the depot forklift, and dealing with customers at both ends.
Your day will include:
Pickups and deliveries across Brisbane and the Sunshine Coast
Loading, unloading and restraining freight properly
Forklift work at the depot and on customer sites
Accurate paperwork and scanning
Keeping in touch with the operations team when plans change
Pre-start checks and taking care of your truck and equipment
Representing ECFD professionally with every customer you deal with
Who We're Looking For
You've been driving long enough to know how to do the job properly, and you still care about doing it well.
You'll need:
A current HR licence and at least 2 years' HR driving experience
A current forklift licence
A clean driving history and a strong safety record
Positive knowledge of Brisbane and Sunshine Coast roads
A solid understanding of load restraint, fatigue management and compliance
The ability to work independently and solve problems on the road
To be friendly, fit and reliable – someone who backs their workmates
Why Drivers Stay With Us
We're not a big faceless operator.
Our customers know us, our managers know our drivers by name, and when something goes wrong on the road you'll be talking to people who understand the job.
We expect our drivers to be safe, reliable and professional.
In return, you get good equipment, steady work, fair pay and respect for the skills you bring.
