Curtainsider Driver - Think Big, Drive Bigger

The Role

We're on the hunt for a proven Class 5 pro who knows their way around big miles and bigger rigs. This permanent role drops you straight into a top-tier fleet, hauling HPMV 58T curtainsider truck & trailer across both islands. Bulk freight, general freight—real linehaul work for drivers who know the game.

You'll be running Monday to Friday dayshift, with the occasional weekend run when the wheels need to keep turning. Some flexibility is part of the deal, including the odd overnight—because that's the nature of serious transport.

Whether you're based in Timaru, Ashburton, Blenheim, or the greater Marlborough region, we're flexible on your location.

About You

• 2+ years Class 5 experience, ideally with interisland miles under your belt
• DG endorsement preferred
• F, W, T endorsements are a bonus, not a deal-breaker
• Pride in delivering for customers and doing the job right
• A team player who understands good transport runs on good people
• Comfortable with technology and willing to adapt

The Perks

• Competitive pay
• Guaranteed minimum of 80 paid hours per fortnight
• Company phone with full personal use
• Medical insurance after 12 months' service
• Company discounts and extra perks
• Genuine career progression opportunities
