We don't leave your career to chance. When you join Park, you join an earnest, hard-working team backed by modern equipment, clear safety standards, and real opportunities to advance.

The Role: Truck Driver (Class 5)

We provide the tools, technology, and support; you bring the skill and dedication. In this role, you will play a key part as the primary driver of production flow across our landscape construction, maintenance, and winter operations, ensuring smaller-scale deliveries and hotshot runs are executed smoothly and efficiently.

Your Daily Impact:

• Transportation & Logistics: Operate company fleet vehicles (Class 5 trucks, flatbeds, utility vehicles) to transport materials, plant stock, tools, and light supplies between yards, suppliers, and job sites, optimizing routes to meet tight project timelines.

• Loading & Material Handling: Safely load, secure (using straps, chains, or tarping), and unload materials while verifying load accuracy against dispatch orders and assisting with manual handling.

• Equipment & Vehicle Care: Perform daily pre-trip and post-trip inspections to ensure compliance with Alberta traffic laws, maintaining vehicle cleanliness and promptly reporting mechanical needs.

• Field & Crew Support: Provide active, hands-on field support between deliveries or during downtime (e.g., grading, shoveling, material placement, site cleanup) to ensure crew productivity and workflow continuity.

• Safety & Compliance: Comply with provincial driving laws and Alberta Transportation standards for commercial use, adhering strictly to safety procedures and hazard assessments.

• Documentation & Communication: Maintain accurate delivery logs, inspection records, and time tracking, keeping dispatch and field supervisors informed on delivery schedules or delays.

• Seasonal Transition (Winter Services): Transition from November through April to support snow and ice management commitments with a flexible, weather-dependent schedule for winter snow events.

Essentials for Success (Qualifications & Skills)

To thrive in this role, you will need a solid technical foundation and a strong work ethic:

• Knowledge: Working knowledge of Alberta traffic laws, basic load securement, and safe towing practices; understanding of light/medium commercial vehicle compliance.

• Skills: Valid Class 5 Driver’s License (non-GDL preferred) with a clean abstract (Class 3 License is a strong asset); ability to tow light utility trailers; proficiency using GPS navigation and mobile dispatch apps; basic mechanical aptitude.

• Abilities: 2+ years of professional or commercial driving experience (Class 5, hotshot, or delivery roles); physical stamina for heavy lifting (50+ lbs) and outdoor labor across changing Alberta weather conditions.

• Competitive Hourly Wage: Based on experience and skill level.

• Predictable Paychecks: Through our Alberta Hours of Work Averaging Agreement, we offer banked time options to keep your pay steady during weather delays or seasonal shifts.
