Richers Transport is a proudly Australian family-owned company established in 1935. For 90 years, we have built a reputation for reliability and safety that is essential in the modern logistics industry. Our depots across Queensland house a modern fleet of long haul trucks servicing the East Coast of Australia down to Sydney and Melbourne.
If you’ve searched for driving jobs in the past but wanted to find somewhere you will be valued, rather than treated like a number in a system, we invite you to join our team.
The Essential Requirement: HC Licence or Higher
To maintain the operational efficiency and high safety standards our clients expect, we require all applicants to hold a minimum of a current HC licence or higher. While an HC licence is our entry requirement, many of our long haul loads involve B-Double configurations where a current MC licence is highly preferred. We are seeking drivers who have mastered the art of long distance truck driving and are ready to represent a leading transport business.
