  • Perform daily vehicle inspections to ensure safe operation.
  • Communicate with site teams to coordinate deliveries and staging.
  • Adhere to all site-specific safety policies, including PPE and traffic control requirements.
  • Assist with other logistics or yard support duties as needed.

  • Minimum 1–2 years of experience operating tractor-trailers or yard mules.
  • Experience strapping and securing irregular or industrial loads.
