Harvest Truck Driver-4
About The Position
We are recruiting contract seasonal truck drivers for 5-tonne flat bed trucks to support our grape harvest. Candidates will be able to easily throw straps to secure a load (bins of grapes) and be confident to drive anywhere within the Okanagan Valley from Kelowna to Osoyoos. Work expected to start in mid-August and run through to the end of October. Candidates will be able to happily work in a fast paced, culturally diverse and frequently changing environment. We are committed to establishing a qualified workforce that reflects the diverse population it serves and we encourage applications from all qualified individuals. We are also committed to preventing and removing barriers to employment for people with disabilities, and we invite you to inform us should you have any accessibility or accommodation needs. Our mission is simple – to build brands people love. In fact, seven of the top 20 brands in Canada are proudly part of the Arterra Wines Canada family: Jackson-Triggs, Inniskillin, Sawmill Creek, Wallaroo Trail, Woodbridge by Robert Mondavi, Ruffino and Kim Crawford. We have more than 140 years of experience in the Canadian wine industry, with five estate wineries across the country and over 1,700 acres of premium vineyards. We have our pulse on viticulture and its latest innovations and most importantly, an understanding of what Canadian consumers are looking for in a bottle of wine.
