Rigging / CDL Class A Driver & Crane Support

Drive Less. Be Home More. Do More Than Just Drive.

Tired of long hauls and weeks away from home? Join Northwest Corp and be home most nights of the year.

This is not an over-the-road driving job. We’re looking for a Class A CDL Driver with a strong focus on rigging —someone who wants to be actively involved on the jobsite, setting up lifts, handling rigging, and signaling while working alongside crane operators and logistics teams to ensure safe, efficient operations.

If you enjoy hands-on work, teamwork, and being part of the lift—not just a steering wheel—this role is for you.
