Job description

We are looking for a reliable Class A Driver who brings a true team-player attitude to the job every day. In this role, your commercial license gets our equipment and materials safely to the site, but your flexibility is what keeps our projects moving. Our day-to-day operations can shift quickly based on weather and client needs, so we need someone who is ready to jump out of the cab, roll up their sleeves, and work alongside the crew on the ground.

Requirements

Key Responsibilities

• Driving & Equipment Hauling: Safely operate Class A vehicles to transport materials, flatbeds, and heavy equipment trailers to various local job sites.
• Flexible Field Labor: Transition seamlessly from driving to hands-on field support. When you aren't driving, you will be actively working with the team to install and maintain erosion control measures (silt fences, wattles, blankets, etc.).
• Load Securement: Properly load, chain down, and secure equipment (like skid steers or tractors) and materials before transit.
• DOT Compliance: Handle routine pre- and post-trip vehicle inspections, keep accurate logs, and keep your truck in safe working order.
• Adaptable Site Support: Jump in wherever needed to keep the project moving, especially when weather events require quick clean-up, repairs, or site adjustments.

Qualifications & Skills

• License & Record: Valid Class A Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) with a clean, insurable driving history.
• The Right Attitude: A strong team-player mindset. You don't mind changing gears quickly when the schedule, weather, or client demands change mid-day.
• Experience: 1+ years of Class A driving experience, preferably hauling trailers or construction equipment. Experience with dirt work or environmental labor is a big plus.
• Physical Capability: Ready to work outdoors in all weather conditions, walk on rough terrain, and lift/move up to 50 lbs. as part of daily physical labor.

Work Environment

• A dynamic mix of commercial driving and active, outdoor construction and environmental fieldwork.
• Regular exposure to dust, mud, variable weather, and typical job site conditions.
• Daily travel to various regional job sites.
