- Carry out general labouring tasks when not operating vehicles
Your duties will involve safely transporting, loading and unloading materials at designated locations, operating water trucks effectively, complying with safety regulations, and maintaining efficient work practices. You’ll perform pre‑operation inspections, follow correct watering and loading/unloading procedures, and work closely with construction crews to maximise productivity.
Additionally, you’ll be responsible for keeping your vehicle clean and well maintained, promptly reporting defects, and complying with all relevant Council processes, policies and safety requirements.
About you
You’re a reliable and safety‑focused operator who takes pride in your work and enjoys being part of a team. You’re comfortable operating trucks and working outdoors, and you’re happy to support construction crews where needed.
Ideally you’ll bring:
- Experience operating trucks such as tipper and/or water trucks
- A strong focus on safety, with the ability to follow procedures and instructions
- A good work ethic and willingness to assist with general labouring tasks when required
- The ability to work well in a team and communicate effectively with crew members
