Experienced Heavy Recovery Operator

at  PeopleHQ

We have a position available for an experienced heavy haulage operator to join the team at Rowe Motors based out of Tauranga. Paying between $40.00 and $47.50 gross per hour and a guaranteed minimum of 40 hours a week and maximum of 70 hours per week, we are looking for a safety conscious individual with a professional approach to transporting overweight and over dimensional loads and the recovery of heavy motor vehicles.
The applicant must have the ability to work flexible hours as this role at times involves the odd early start and late finish, take it in turn with our other heavy haulage drivers to do machinery and heavy recovery moves on a weekend (generally a Saturday morning) and the odd overnight stay away.
