Mō te whai waahi | About the opportunity

We're looking for more than just a driver.

We're looking for someone who enjoys being part of a great team, likes getting to know their customers, and takes pride in supporting the farmers, growers and rural businesses that keep Hawke's Bay thriving.

Based from our Hawke's Bay branch, you'll be out on the road delivering products across the region, helping customers in-store, supporting warehouse operations, and pitching in wherever needed. No two days are the same, and that's exactly how we like it.

You'll become a familiar face to many of our customers - someone they know they can rely on. Whether you're making a delivery, lending a hand in the yard, or helping a customer find what they need, you'll play an important role in the local rural community.

At Farmlands, we work hard, look out for each other, and enjoy what we do. If you're someone who values teamwork, enjoys connecting with people, and isn't afraid to get stuck in, you'll fit right in.

• Assist customers in-store when needed

• Work closely with a team that values collaboration and getting stuck in

You'll bring:

• A Full Class 2 licence, Class F endorsement and a safe driving record

• Recent experience operating Class 2 curtainsider vehicles

• Proven experience loading, securing, transporting and unloading varied load profiles

• Strong working knowledge of load restraint systems and load security practices

• A solid understanding of NZ driver worktime rules, fatigue management and logbook requirements, with recent practical application

You'll also be someone who:

• Enjoys building relationships with customers

• Is community-minded and takes pride in supporting local farmers and growers

• Rolls up their sleeves and helps wherever needed

• Brings a positive, team-first attitude

• Communicates well and genuinely enjoys working with people

• Can work independently while remaining a valued member of the wider team

Dangerous Goods and OSH certifications are advantageous, but not essential. We'll happily support the right person to gain or refresh these qualifications.

You'll be rewarded with:

• Competitive pay and great staff discounts

• Generous leave, including sick leave from Day 1 and your birthday off
