Drive and Provide

Driving a concrete agitator truck for Hanson is more than just going from A to B and back again. Our Agi tator drivers provide high levels of customer service to our clients receiving our products, becoming the face of our business. As an Agi Driver, you will be making multiple deliveries throughout the day and interacting with lots of different people. Every day will be different, there's nothing routine about this role!

About the role:

• Most days will start between 4am and 6am and drivers can do up to and over 10 hours per day, and around 50 - 60 hours per week including Saturday work which is paid at overtime rates.
• We pay a base rate of $33.04 and once you go past your regular hours (8hrs) in one day the first two after that will be at time and a half. If you do more than 2 hours overtime in a day, you go to double time.
• A $23.87 Meal allowance is paid once you have worked 10 hours in one shift
• As we mentioned, driving an Agi is like being a Customer Service Agent on wheels. You will be dealing with lots of different personalities every day, so you need to be comfortable interacting with people you haven't met before
• We provide cutting edge technology to not only keep you safe whilst driving, but also to help you map your routes and keep track of your loads
• All new starters go through a 10-day training program before we let you loose by yourself
