Why join Ampol Petroleum Distribution? 

At Ampol Petroleum Distribution, you're more than just a driver. 

You'll be joining a team that values safety, teamwork, customer service, and looking after each other. You'll work alongside experienced operators who are passionate about what they do and will support you as you learn the role. 

 

This is a position that offers: 

  • Variety and independence every day 

  • A supportive and down-to-earth team culture 

  • Industry-leading safety systems and training 

  • Long-term career opportunities with one of Australia's most recognised brands 

  • The chance to build skills in a specialised sector of the transport industry

About the role   

Based out of our Gladstone Depot, you'll operate a Mini Tanker providing onsite refuelling services to customers across the region.

  • Working safely around heavy equipment and industrial environments 

 

This role suits someone who enjoys responsibility, is self-motivated, and takes pride in delivering a professional service.
