Job description

LPG Driver/Operator - Class 1 or Class 2 licence

Rockgas is New Zealand's number one supplier of LPG. At Rockgas we are committed to delivering market leading performance to shareholders and great value and service to our customers. With our talented team of employees working from one end of the country to the other to make great things happen.

Ingrained in everything we do is our commitment to respect the rights and interests of the communities in which we operate, and strive to minimise health, safety and environmental impacts on our customers and communities, as well as our employees.

We are committed to creating a diverse workforce that reflects and supports our communities. A place where our people can bring their whole selves to work and feel valued for their contribution.

You will often work in a sole charge capacity (after an initial training period) and require a full Class 1 or 2 license. It’s pretty physical as you’ll be moving a lot of LPG cylinders, loading and unloading them on to trucks. We’re big on health and safety here at Rockgas, so you’ll need to do all this while maintaining a safe work environment.

While it's great if you've already got your Class 2 license (even as a learner), we are also keen to hear from you if you have a full Class 1 and want to get into driving as a career. We will support you to get your Class 2 licence and make sure you get lots of driving experience.

Ka mau matou I enei pukenga - What we’re looking for:

• A minimum Class 1 full licence or a Class 2 heavy trade vehicle licence (a Dangerous Goods endorsement would be an advantage but we can train you for this).
• Proven experience driving a truck preferably in a delivery role
• A strong customer service focus
• A very good level of physical fitness in order to move LPG cylinders
• Strong communication skills and a commitment to working as part of a team
• A strong work ethic, integrity and adaptability
• Flexibility to work outside normal business hours and in all weather conditions

The recruitment process for this role involves a medical check which includes a drug and alcohol test, and a criminal record check.

Additional Information

This role will provide you with the opportunity to work in a great team, interact with customers and keep physically fit. We offer a safe work environment where your wellness is a priority, a competitive hourly rate, and great benefits including additional leave, seasonal pressie cards, medical and death benefit insurances and a fitness grant.

Applications close on 29 September 2026.
