About The Position

We are currently seeking a Class B Driver with manual endorsement for our Gravel Shooters company. Gravel Shooters has been placing sand, gravel, and various material for more than sixteen years to the St. Louis area. Our stone slinging trucks have the capability to convey materials up to 60 feet from the back of tires of the vehicle. We provide solutions for all of your gravel shooting, stone slinging, and material placement needs. We're able to accommodate projects of all sizes and work with various materials. Qualifications Driver must be able to operate a large modified dump truck. The truck and driver are subject to DOT/CDL laws and regulations. It is licensed for 72,000+ lbs. The driver must be able to operate the vehicle safely on public roads, delivering to residential and commercial areas. The driver must be able to lift their own weight and climb up repeatedly into the cab and in some instances the back of the vehicle to the “crows nest” to operate the conveying system properly. The driver must be able to climb down into foundations to inspect his work with the assistance of a ladder. The driver must be able to shovel rock in order to level what has been placed in most instances. This is done with a scoop shovel that will hold approximately 15 pounds of rock at a time. This could require shoveling for periods of up to, but not limited, to 1 hour at each jobsite. The driver could be required to do this up to, but not limited to, 4 times or 4+ hours per day. The driver must be able to perform some maintenance on his vehicle. Must be able to use remote control to maneuver conveyer. Check out video here. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJYdYedoFMg&list=PPSV Regular work attendance is an essential job function as we are a small company and operate with a small work force. Regular work hours start at 5:30 a.m. Due to the nature of Gravel Shooters’ business, employees are required to work overtime as needed, which occurs almost daily. Notice of the need to work overtime may be given at very short notice due to the nature of the work. It is impossible to tell what jobs will call in for the day, and how much time the particular job will require until the employee actually shows up to the jobsite. We will do our best to allow overtime to be declined. However, with the small work force we hire, it puts undue stress on co-workers who are required to pick up the extra work.
