Full job description

At Richers Transport, we’re always looking for professional long haul drivers to meet the needs of our customers and keep our business moving forward. Whether you’re a Fraser Coast or Gympie resident or Brisbane-based, general freight trucking roles offer a stable, rewarding career path for those with the right skills and pride in their work. We are currently hiring for multiple long distance roles with an immediate start available for early applicants who meet our current standard for excellence.

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.

Our Application Process:

  • Download and complete the official application form.
  • Scan the completed form along with a copy of your driver’s licence.
  • Include a current traffic history report.
  • Attach all documents using the upload portal below.

Long Haul Truck Driver Jobs FAQs

What is the minimum licence required?

A minimum of a current HC licence or higher is essential for all long haul roles. Because much of our volume involves B-Double configurations, an MC licence is often preferred.

What kind of freight do you move?

We specialise in general freight for a wide range of customers and companies. This primarily involves palletised freight and bulk loads. We do not move parcels, packages, or household goods.

How quickly can I start driving?

We are actively hiring full-time drivers and looking for early applicants. If you have a clean licence, the required skills, and a commitment to safety, we can often facilitate an immediate start.

Do you require medical or drug testing?

Yes. To manage a safe working environment, all applicants must undergo a pre-employment medical and drug screen. This is a current standard across our operations to ensure the safety of our team and the public.

Where will I be driving?

Our long haul drivers primarily service the Eastern Seaboard of Australia: NSW, VIC, ACT, Brisbane, QLD, up to the Far North of the state. Our vast network ensures you are moving loads along major corridors with the support of an experienced team behind you.
