Job description

At Ampol, we believe in the Power of Us - the extraordinary power of people to connect, act, and make a difference.

As a leading energy company operating across Australia, New Zealand, Singapore and from the United States, our work spans fuel supply, energy solutions, convenience retail, infrastructure, trading and shipping. Every role at Ampol plays a part in something bigger - powering progress for our customers, communities, and people.

Your career here is yours to shape. We back our people with real opportunities, the tools to grow, and a culture that rewards ownership and initiative. Whether you're deepening your expertise or taking on something new, we'll support you to power a career that works for you.

We're building a workplace where everyone feels welcome, respected, and valued - because when people are free to be themselves, powerful things happen.

About Infrastructure

Ampol has been proudly fuelling Australia since 1900, from humble beginnings, through 120 years of growth and change. We are the operational heart of the business, responsible for the refinement and distribution of petrol and petroleum products. Our operations span the country and working with us will provide you with the opportunity to meet a diverse team of experts who help make Ampol the energy supply chain leader it is today.

This purpose reflects our commitment to delivering value for our customers and our people now, through safe, reliable, and competitive operations. As we look to the future, we will continue to innovate through new energy and fuel solutions to deliver on powering better journeys, today and tomorrow.

Why join Ampol Petroleum Distribution?

At Ampol Petroleum Distribution, you're more than just a driver.

You'll be joining a team that values safety, teamwork, customer service, and looking after each other. You'll work alongside experienced operators who are passionate about what they do and will support you as you learn the role.

This is a position that offers:

• Variety and independence every day
• A supportive and down-to-earth team culture
• Industry-leading safety systems and training
• Long-term career opportunities with one of Australia's most recognised brands
• The chance to build skills in a specialised sector of the transport industry
• Meaningful work supporting essential industries across Central Queensland

About the role

Based out of our Gladstone Depot, you'll operate a Mini Tanker providing onsite refuelling services to customers across the region.

You’ll manage your own daily run, build positive relationships with customers, and deliver safe, reliable service every time.

Your day may include:

• Onsite refuelling of customer equipment and vehicles
• Delivering lubricants and related products
• Conducting pre-start and operational safety checks
• Managing delivery documentation and compliance requirements
• General depot and yard duties as required
• Working safely around heavy equipment and industrial environments

This role suits someone who enjoys responsibility, is self-motivated, and takes pride in delivering a professional service.
