The Role: Are you an experienced West Coast driver who knows how to tame steep mountain grades with 100+ ton payloads? Holbrook Dyson Logging Ltd. (HDL) is seeking a skilled Off-Highway Log Truck Driver to join our North Island forestry operations based out of Woss, BC. In this role, you will operate heavy-duty off-highway logging rigs (Hayes HDX, or equivalent heavy configurations) on forestry resource roads, navigating steep coastal terrain and managing heavy payloads through all seasonal weather conditions. If you are a professional driver who prioritizes safety, respects industrial radio protocols, and takes pride in taking care of top-tier iron, we want to hear from you.
