Load, secure, and unload materials using walking floor systems safely and efficiently.

Support disaster response efforts by maintaining continuous hauling cycles to keep sites clear and productive.

Perform pre-trip and post-trip inspections to ensure equipment safety and compliance.

Maintain accurate driver logs, load tickets, and compliance documentation.

Ensure compliance with DOT regulations and company safety standards.

Preferred Qualifications

Experience in debris hauling, waste management, or disaster recovery operations.

Experience working on construction or emergency response job sites.

OSHA certification (10-hour or 30-hour).

Familiarity with heavy equipment and job site operations.

What to Expect

This role operates in fast-paced disaster recovery environments where work conditions and priorities can change quickly. Drivers should expect long hours, travel, and outdoor work in varying weather conditions. Assignments may require temporary relocation depending on project needs.

You will be part of a mission-driven team focused on clearing debris and restoring communities after disasters. The work is physically demanding and time-sensitive, requiring strong safety awareness, adaptability, and teamwork.

Physical Requirements and Environment

Ceres provides reasonable accommodations to qualified individuals with disabilities and to applicants with sincerely held religious beliefs, as required by law.

Ability to lift and move up to 50 pounds with or without reasonable accommodation.

Specific vision abilities to include close vision, distance vision, depth perception, and ability to adjust focus.

Willing to wear PPE including hard hats, protective eyewear, steel-toed boots, and high-visibility gear.

Ability to work in adverse weather/field conditions, including extreme temperatures, dust, noise, and uneven terrain.

Ability to climb in and out of trucks and operate equipment for extended periods.

Commitment to following safety standards and protocols.

Why Join CEO?

At CEO, you won't just have a job, you'll have a mission. Your work will directly impact the speed and strength of community recovery after disasters.

We offer:

A collaborative, mission-driven culture.

Opportunities for professional growth and advancement.
