Be the driver behind better driving.
If you’re a skilled heavy vehicle driver who enjoys helping others lift their game, this is your chance to turn that passion into a career. Join Ron Finemore Transport (RFT) as a Driver Trainer based at our Wodonga head office – the central hub of our operations and a great place to build your career.
This isn’t a desk job. You’ll be out in the yard and on the road, working hands-on with drivers to build their capability, confidence, and commitment to safety. You’ll play a key role in strengthening our driver team and keeping RFT at the forefront of the industry.
What’s in it for you?
Flexibility and variety – yard, road, and occasional travel across sites
Discounts at retailers like JB HiFi, Harvey Norman, Supercheap, BCF
Salary sacrifice options (e.g. cars, phones, laptops)
Wellbeing programs to keep you fit and healthy
Career growth with one of the most respected transport companies in Australia
What we’re looking for:
MC licence with at least 5 years’ heavy vehicle driving experience (more highly regarded)
Strong knowledge of WHS and COR requirements
Experience with supermarket DC deliveries, including rear and finger docks
Hands-on coaching skills – you’re someone drivers naturally learn from
Confident communicator who can give feedback clearly and record training using mobile/tablet systems
Calm, approachable, and down-to-earth – drivers respect you because you’ve “been there, done that”
Certificate IV in Training & Assessment is desirable but not required upfront – RFT will support you to complete it within your first six months.
About the Role
As a Driver Trainer at RFT Wodonga, you’ll:
Train, review, and coach drivers in the yard and on the road
Conduct driver recruitment assessments and interviews
Support inductions and on-road observations
Carry out drug and alcohol testing, coupling checks, and site inspections
Complete driver reviews at 1 and 3 months
Travel occasionally to support other depots (Melbourne, Wagga, Sydney)
Report on training and driver activities using mobile technology (minimal office time)
This is a full-time, permanent role based at RFT’s head office in Wodonga, reporting into the General Divisions Operations team.
