Primary Function

Heavy earthmoving, clearing, and push-loading for mass excavation and site preparation.

Key Responsibilities:

• Mass Excavation: Push large volumes of soil, rock, or debris to designated fill areas or stockpiles.
• Clearing & Grubbing: Remove trees, stumps, and topsoil using straight or angle blades; rip compacted ground with ripper attachments.
• Sloping & Benching: Cut slopes, ramps, and bench levels for highway construction or mining pits according to engineered plans.
• Push-Loading: Assist scrapers or loaders by pushing material into their bowls/buckets to increase production efficiency.
• Track Care: Monitor undercarriage (tracks, rollers, sprockets) for wear and tension; grease pivot points daily.
• Ground Assessment: Evaluate ground stability to avoid bogging down or rollover, particularly on soft or muddy terrain.

Applicants must meet the following minimum criteria:

• Basic literacy skills (ability to read and write).
• Proven knowledge and hands-on experience operating any of the specified machinery.
• Multi-skilled operators with experience on multiple equipment types will be given preference.
• At least two years of practical experience in agricultural-related heavy equipment operations.

Traceable professional references to verify work history and competence.
