MC Truck Driver
Visa sponsorship
Logistics · Adelaide, SA, Australia · Full-Time · $110,000 - $130,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Carrots, onions and potatoes grown and packed in South Australia reach supermarkets, independent shops and export buyers, and the grower behind them needs several experienced, motivated MC truck drivers on permanent full-time terms. The job is moving that produce between the company's growing and packing sites.
The team leader is the Transport Manager. Driving is shared across a range of transport operations from a regional site in South Australia, and applicants should be willing to move there. The employer holds approved sponsor status and will look at suitably qualified candidates who need a visa.
Truck drivers in Nairobi or Mombasa should put licence classes, the vehicles driven and years on the road at the top of the CV. Build a driver's CV with Build AI CV to keep the details tidy.
