Tahurua Earthmovers Limited Gisborne, New Zealand
We're looking for an experienced tractor driver to join our team for the cropping season (spring and autumn). Cropping work involves planting fodder crops and re-grassing. This is done on both flat land and hill country. The right person will be reliable, take pride in their work, and be confident operating modern tractors and cropping gear. Off-season, there's ongoing work operating back blades, scoop, and hay mulcher, so this is a great opportunity for someone wanting steady, year-round hours. You'll need: • Proven experience operating tractors and implements • A practical, can-do attitude and good attention to detail • Reliability and the ability to work independently • A current full driver's license On offer: • Year-round work across cropping season and off-season operations • Competitive pay based on experience If this sounds like you, get in touch — we'd love to hear from you.
