DRIVERS (HEAVY PLANT OPERATORS)
Ever wanted to work at Napier Port? What about driving machinery? We operate lots of impressive equipment here at Napier Port, from small forklifts right up to the biggest reach stackers in town. We’re looking for drivers to join our team, working together to keep the cargo flowing and Hawke’s Bay connected to the world.
What do I need?
- A great attitude
- A full Class 2 drivers’ licence that you’ve had for at least 6 months
- W/F endorsement desirable
What’s on offer at Napier Port?
- A full-time, permanent job, generally working 8-hour shifts with a guaranteed minimum of 40 hours per week. It’s really important to us that you have time for friends and whānau.
- A starting rate over $30 per hour – with regular pay rises when you pick up new skills.
- Paying for you to get the right licences – all the way up to class 5, including OSH, forklift and wheels endorsement.
- A real focus on safety, with a dedicated safety team available 24/7.
- On-the-job training with one of our qualified and experienced trainers – who also have a great attitude!
What do I need to know?
Napier Port is a 24/7 business. That means shift work, working weekends and public holidays is part of the deal. When you first join us, you’ll work from around 7am to mid-afternoon, or mid-afternoon to midnight. We share it around to keep it fair for everyone.
Once you have more experience, you’ll also work midnight until 7am. We know night shifts can be hard so we ensure you have dedicated time off work to prepare and to rest afterwards, and we provide mentors who can share their insights about managing tiredness. Normally it’s a couple of years until you get to this point.
