Milk Tanker Driver | Seasonal ( Blu Logistics (TAS) )

DEVONPORT, TAS, Australia

Expired

Job Summary:

Do you want to drive modern trucks and use the latest equipment? Would you like to work 3-3-3 day/night shifts? Would you like to be part of a growing local team? A great opportunity for those who love responsibility, take pride in their work and want to sleep in their own bed each night!

Blu Logistics is a well-established milk transport businesscurrently looking for keen milk tanker driver/operators who want to be a part of the growing team based out of Spreyton. With a commitment to high vehicle and driving standards,automatic trucks and modern tankers, Blu is proud to be building a great local team of skilled professionals.

The role involves tasks such as:
• Safely and courteously driving single and/or b-double trailer trucks (You will need an MC license fo this)
• Farm Collection and delivery to Spreyton Factory
• Following processes to ensure milk quality is of the highest standard
• Cleaning your truck each shift
• Taking good care of property and customer relationships
• Taking ownership of the work you do and the contribution you make – this is really important because the Directors are looking for someone who really wants to make a difference, not just to turn up to work.

The rosters typically operate on a 3-3-3 basis, so the work is regular within the season and the hours are pretty consistent. You can easily imagine you’ll need to know a lot to be able to do it all to the high standard that both you and the company expect. But fear not! Full training is provided – all you’ll need is evidence of:
• MC B-double licence and clean driving record
• Your ability to be self-directed and self-disciplined
• Good personal behaviours, including courtesy, hygiene and communication
• Performance to a highly professional standard in the past
• A positive, cooperative attitude and a willingness to listen, learn and contribute
Note: Tanker experience is not essential but an MC license and a positive, open attitude is.

Additionally, the Directors have worked very hard to build great relationships with clients and within the team and that means how everyone behaves and treats each other must be to the highest professional standards. They know this means some highly experienced potential applicants won’t apply, but their dedication to great communications and relationships won’t be compromised.

What’s in it for you? Well, with modern equipment, sensible rosters, a great company and wages that are well-above the award combined with what might be described as a nice drive every day (or night) and returning to your own bed every night (or day), this is an exceptionally attractive role in the transport industry.
