Straddle Crane Operator

Details of the offer

Employing over 1200 staff in 11 locations, C3 Limited is a market leader in New Zealand's port related product and cargo handling, adding value to our clients' businesses by providing solutions to their transport and logistics needs.

We are looking to top up our pool of straddle drivers and seek experienced drivers of heavy machinery with a minimum full Class 1 licence. Our straddle drivers operate straddle cranes that stack and move shipping containers at the Sulphur Point Container Terminal. Experience as a straddle driver is not essential as comprehensive training is provided to successful candidates who can demonstrate that they have the right skills.

With a starting rate of $30.00 per hour while training, this is a permanent position with a minimum hours guarantee, equivalent to 40 hours per week. Applicants must be flexible with their availability as this operation runs 24/7 with shifts generally between 6-12 hours long. Due to the variabilities of shipping schedules, the hours are not always predictable.

To be a straddle driver you need to have a calm aptitude and be comfortable working on your own. Your office is a small cab suspended 11 meters above the ground where you have to climb up and down a ladder to take your breaks and your only form of communication is via radio.

Essential requirements for the position are:

Proven heavy machinery driving experience

Comfortable working at heights

Flexibility and reliability

Good communication skills

Time management skills and ability to work unsupervised

Ability to meet deadlines

Willingness to follow standard operating procedures

Strict adherence to all health and safety procedures

Minimum Full Class 1 driver licence

C3 offers competitive rates of pay and potential for career development. Shortlisted applicants will be required to demonstrate their skills in a simulator. Successful applications will be required to pass a pre-employment medical assessment, drug & alcohol screen, as well as criminal records checks.
