We are seeking a dependable, safety-focused Construction CDL Driver to support our field construction operations. This position is more than a traditional driving role. The driver will be responsible for transporting construction equipment, vehicles, tools, and materials between yards and active job sites, while also assisting with loading, unloading, equipment handling, inspections, and basic troubleshooting.

• Participate in required drug and alcohol testing programs and maintain CDL qualification requirements.
• Immediately report accidents, citations, roadside inspections, equipment damage, or compliance concerns.
• Follow all company safety policies and job-site requirements.

This is an outdoor, field-based construction position, not an office or driving-only position. The employee should expect to work in and around active construction sites and equipment yards.

• Regular exposure to heat, cold, rain, wind, sun, dust, mud, and other natural outdoor elements.
• Work may continue during changing or uncomfortable weather conditions when it is safe and operationally appropriate to do so.
• Must be comfortable working around construction equipment, moving vehicles, machinery, noise, dirt, and uneven terrain.
• Must be able to repeatedly enter and exit commercial vehicles and construction equipment.
• Must be physically capable of assisting with equipment securement, chains, binders, straps, materials, and other job-related tasks.
• Must be willing to perform hands-on work outside of the truck when required.
• Must follow required PPE and job-site safety requirements at all times.

• Valid Commercial Driver’s License (CDL) in good standing.
• Acceptable driving record and ability to meet company and insurance requirements.
• Experience transporting construction or heavy equipment strongly preferred.
• Experience operating trucks and trailers in construction environments.
• Knowledge of proper equipment loading, unloading, tie-down, and load-securement procedures.
• Ability to operate construction equipment used for loading and unloading.
• Basic mechanical knowledge and ability to troubleshoot minor vehicle or equipment issues.
• Understanding of DOT/FMCSA regulations, vehicle inspections, and safe commercial vehicle operation.
• Ability to work outdoors and around active construction operations.

Experience with any of the following is a plus:

• Utility or underground construction
• Horizontal directional drilling (HDD) operations
• Vacuum excavators
• Flatbed and equipment trailers
• Heavy equipment hauling and securement
• Construction material transportation
• Fleet inspections and preventive maintenance
• DOT roadside inspections and compliance documentation

This position requires someone who understands that their responsibility does not end when the truck reaches its destination. We are looking for a driver who will take ownership of the truck, trailer, equipment, and load from pickup through delivery.

The right candidate will prioritize safety, inspect equipment before moving it, properly secure every load, communicate problems before they become larger issues, and help keep construction crews supplied and operational.

This is a hands-on construction position requiring outdoor work in natural elements. Safety, reliability, equipment care, DOT compliance, flexibility, and accountability are essential to this role.
