MC Truck Driver
Visa sponsorship
Logistics · Adelaide, SA, Australia · Full-Time · $110,000 - $130,000/yr · Visa: Employer sponsored
Several MC truck drivers are wanted by a leading Australian grower and packer, a business that supplies major supermarket chains, independent retailers and export markets with carrots, onions and potatoes. Drivers must be experienced and motivated, and the jobs are permanent and full-time.
Produce moves between the growing and packing sites in South Australia, and drivers work as a team under the Transport Manager across various transport operations. The base is a regional site in the state, so candidates need to be willing to move there. Approved sponsor status means the employer will consider suitably qualified candidates who need a visa.
A driver CV works best when it lists licences, tickets, truck types and any fresh-produce hauling. If you are in Kampala, prepare your trucking CV on Build AI CV before you send it.
