About Me:

Hi my name is Michael, I have been in the military as an Aircraft Ground Engineer so I am very mechanically minded. I obtained my truck training/licence through the military. On weekends I would drive for various companies till discharging in 1994. I have worked for some big named companies over the years(Refrigerated Roadways, Garden City, Tolls and Kalari). After being asked back to the military in 2002, I continued to drive on weekends for two and a half years before discharging again and buying my own truck and float (that was sold in 2008 (due to a divorce)). I am looking for local or regional work, Monday to Friday (some weekend as req’d). I will do changeover and direct but not as a full time gig! Old skool driver with a clean record (very hard to believe, but yes!) I am prepared to negotiate pay rate due to my experience/mechanical knowledge/clean driving record.

Kalari Transport

Supervisor/Driver: The first year with Kalari was at the Moura Depot in Operations. My duties were to schedule trucks for loading, plan drivers for their trip, monitor their fatigue hours and communicate with customers and other Kalari sites. I then applied for a position at BMA Blackwater to be one of two onsite supervisors for Kalari. The job entailed monitoring stock levels and ordering product as required, liaising with BMA, Dyno and Downer EDI plus loading of their MPU's. Both these positions required police and ASIO (SSAN) checks and the required BMA induction and BMA courses to be completed. After two years in Blackwater I asked to return to Moura but this would only be as a driver delivering product to the mines. I happily accepted this position due to the location.
