Class 5 Driver

Class 5 Driver

Tradestaff Mt Wellington is looking for an experienced Class 5 Driver to join a busy South Auckland operation where the days are full and the work is steady.
This isn’t just point A to B driving — you’ll be moving materials between sites, working around a yard, and staying active throughout the day.
You’ll be behind the wheel of heavy gear, doing local runs, loading up, and working alongside a team that keeps things moving.
If you’re the type of driver who likes a mix of driving and hands-on work (and not sitting around waiting), this is a good fit.

Location: South Auckland, Auckland
Start date: Immediate start available
Pay rate: $33.00 – $35.00 per hour, paid weekly

What you’ll be doing:

• Driving Class 5 trucks on local South Auckland runs
• Transporting materials between yard and job sites
• Loading and unloading your truck safely
• Completing daily checks and delivery paperwork
• Assisting with yard duties when required
• Operating a forklift (if licensed)

What we’re looking for:

• Full Class 5 licence
• Solid experience driving heavy vehicles
• Comfortable with both driving and hands-on yard work
• Forklift licence (counterbalance) is a bonus
• Reliable, punctual, and safety-focused
• Good understanding of transport safety and compliance
• Ability to pass a drug and alcohol test

What’s in it for you:

• $33–$35/hr depending on experience
• Weekly pay you can rely on
• Local runs — be home each day
• Variety in your day (not just sitting in the cab)
• Work with a team that keeps things moving
