• Keep assigned equipment clean and in good working condition.
• Follow company safety policies and wear required PPE.

What We’re Looking For

• Valid Class A CDL.

• Acceptable driving record that meets company insurance requirements.
• Ability to operate a semi-truck and trailer in active construction and off-road environments.
• Knowledge of DOT regulations and safe commercial-driving practices.
• Dependable attendance and strong communication skills.
• Availability for extended hours, overtime, and weekend work as needed during peak season.

Preferred Experience

• Lead dump, end dump, or similar trailer experience.
• Prior experience in aggregate hauling, excavation, or construction trucking.

Work Environment
