Melfort

We at Leading Edge National Staffing are currently Hiring for a customer based out of Melfort, SK. Your job will be to haul petroleum products for Co-op from the Regina refinery to Melfort and surrounding communities.

Drivers complete one trip per shift, departing Melfort, travelling to Regina to load, and returning to deliver in Melfort and the surrounding area. All of our fuel drivers are home daily.

Fleet and Scheduling

3 trucks operating on a 4-on/4-off schedule.

We do our best to accommodate driver preferences for day or night shifts.

- Day shifts typically begin around 1:00 AM.
- Night shifts generally begin as soon as the day-shift driver returns.
- Trip durations vary depending on the delivery location and operating conditions. Our average trip is approximately 11 hours, with some trips taking less than 11 hours and others exceeding 12 hours.
- Each driver completes one trip per shift.

The combination of the two schedules creates additional earning opportunities for drivers on the 4-on/4-off rotation. They have the opportunity to pick up weekend shifts on the 5-on/2-off trucks during their scheduled days off, as well as cover other drivers' vacation days, sick days, or other absences.

Driver Qualifications

- Valid Class 1A driver's licence.
- Minimum 2 years of Super B driving experience, regardless of the commodity hauled.
- Relatively clean driver's abstract.
- Relatively clean criminal record check. Older offences, particularly those more than 10 years old, may be considered depending on their nature and circumstances.
- Previous petroleum hauling experience is an asset but is not mandatory.





The customer will provide paid training on the specialized aspects of petroleum hauling, including loading, unloading, and applicable safety procedures.

Housing and Accommodations

We recognize that recruiting drivers to Melfort may involve candidates relocating from other communities.

For drivers relocating with their families, The customer can assist them in finding suitable local accommodations.

For individual drivers, they've previously rented houses through the company and accommodated multiple drivers in each house to help reduce their living expenses.

Depending on the housing market and associated costs, we've typically deducted approximately $500 per month from participating drivers' pay to offset the accommodation expenses.

Health and Dental Benefits

The customer offers health and dental benefits through Canada Life following the driver's probationary period and eligibility for our benefit program.

They also cover the full cost of individual coverage. Drivers wishing to add spouses or dependants to their plan are responsible for the additional premium.

What We're Looking For

Ultimately, we're looking for reliable, safety-conscious drivers who are comfortable with the 4-on/4-off schedule and the expectations of a petroleum hauling operation.

Previous fuel experience is certainly valuable, but we're more interested in finding experienced Super B drivers with a strong work ethic, valuable driving habits, and a willingness to learn our operation
