Christchurch - Class 4 & 5 Civil Drivers
$28–$32/hr depending on experience | 45+ hours per week | Long-term opportunity
Tired of just driving from site to site with no variety?This is your chance to become a valuable part of a civil crew, not just another driver in the rotation. We're looking for reliable, hands-on Class 4 Drivers who are ready to step up, get involved on the ground, and build a long-term future in civil construction.
About the Role;
You’ll be behind the wheel of Class 4 or 5 trucks, but when the truck stops, you don’t. This is a mixed role with the opportunity to develop new skills on site. You’ll work directly alongside machine operators and civil crews, gaining experience in spotting, drainage, and general site support.
What You’ll Be Doing;- Operating Class 4 or 5 trucks across active civil sites
- Assisting with labouring duties when not driving
- Supporting digger operators with spotting and site safety
- Working closely with the site foreman to keep operations moving
- Minimum 45 hours per week with consistent workload
- Valid Class 4 or 5 licence
- Civil experience preferred
- Reliable, punctual and ready to work hard
- Physically fit and happy to jump on the tools
- Positive, team-oriented mindset with a willingness to learn
- Great variety — no two days the same
- Opportunity to learn new skills in drainage and civil site work
- Long-term, ongoing work with potential to go permanent
- Join a respected NZ company with strong project pipelines
- Be treated as a key team member, not just a truck number
