Are you a Driver Operator and a bit of a character? At InterGroup, our people are real good characters who have each other’s backs every day. And we're after more characters like you to come and join us!
What's the job?
InterGroup are New Zealand's Infrastructure and Industrial Services specialists, delivering services in waste management, industrial, coatings and infrastructure. You may not have heard of us, but we do a lot – and we've got aspirations to be number one in every area we deliver. That's where you come in, are you up for the challenge?
As a Driver Operator, you will be responsible for operating various company vehicles and equipment, to deliver efficient and safe services to clients. Your duties will include yard work, performing pre-start checks, and ensuring that all equipment is properly maintained and operated professionally.
Your role will involve a range of tasks, including water blasting, hydro-flushing, and vacuum loading of waste materials. Additionally, you will be expected to clear pipe blockages, operate CCTV equipment, and carry out hydro-excavation. Throughout all these tasks, safety, efficiency and professionalism will be your top priorities.
The Employer's normal hours of operation are between 6am and 10pm, 7 days per week. The hours of work will be 40 hours a week.
We are currently recruiting for 2 roles in our Tauranga branch.
You'll get:
- A hands-on training programme with a wide range of courses
- A welcoming, helpful team – our characters are down to earth and all willing to muck in to give each other a hand - everyone feels like they belong here
- Heaps of development and opportunities for growth
- True health and safety – you'll never have to work in an unsafe environment or in a situation where you feel uncomfortable
Are you the right fit?
You’ll be a character who’s always wanting to learn and grow - your voice matters here, and you'll be empowered to make decisions, not just take directions. We’re hoping you’ll be enthusiastic and have a can-do attitude. You might be faced with vehicle complexities and challenges, so we're after characters who are resilient, adaptable and show perseverance and teamwork.
You will need:
- A full, clean and current driver’s license (minimum class 4)
