Delivery Driver (Boom Truck Operator)

The job
You’ll drive one of our DZ boom trucks out of the North Bay branch, delivering building materials to job sites around North Bay and the surrounding area. Most loads are drywall, steel studs, insulation and lumber, and a lot of them go up: onto upper floors, through window openings and onto roofs, set where the crew wants them.

Already have your boom ticket? Great. If you have a DZ and the right attitude but no ticket yet, we’ll train you.

What you’ll do

• Drive a DZ boom truck to job sites, from city lots to rural sites with rough access
• Operate the boom to land material on upper floors, rooftops and staging areas
• Check each site before you set up: overhead power lines, ground conditions, outriggers, the landing spot
• Load your truck in the yard and secure every load properly
• Get proof of delivery, and report shortages or damage the same day
• Do your circle checks and keep your logbook, truck and boom in good shape
• Help in the warehouse when the trucks are in

What you need

• A valid Ontario DZ licence and a clean driver’s abstract
• Experience driving a straight truck
• You can lift 50 lb regularly and work outside through a Northern Ontario winter
• CSA steel-toe boots and the rest of your PPE
• You take safety seriously around loads, power lines and people on site

Assets

• Boom truck ticket (we’ll train the right person if you don’t have one)
• Boom truck or crane experience
• Experience in building supply or construction
• You know North Bay and the area’s job sites
• Working French
