Off Road End / Dump / Roller Drivers

Company Logo

Overview

Moretrench, a Keller Company, has been in existence since the late 1800's.  We perform industrial work in Florida with the majority of our work in the Tampa area.  Fertilizer and power being our primary industries.  The safety of our employees is the number one priority in our company.  We have many long term employees because we pay a competitive rate, have outstanding benefits (including dollar for dollar match on 401K up to 6%) and the vast majority of our employees sleep in their own bed at night.  Our business is stable, year over year, as the fertilizer and power companies still need to support the growth of food and provide energy in all economies.  Therefore, our work avoids the ups and downs that are seen in residential and commercial construction and other industries.  If you will consider a better pay and benefits package, are tired of traveling, sick of the Northeast winters, want an employer that cares about your safety first and want a stable business that's not always ramping down then ramping up then this is the company for you.  If you are not safety conscious and not an experienced Class A operator, than you need not apply.  We want the best!

We are looking for a Driver to join our team in Riverview, FL.

Drive Caterpillar or equivalent Articulating Off-Road Haul Truck equipped with dump body to transport and dump loose materials such as sand, gravel, and crushed rock materials at mine site.
