This is more than just a driving job—you’ll be a key part of a fast-paced, safety-driven harvest operation with a team that values hard work, communication, and commitment.

Schedule: Monday–Sunday, extended hours and variable shifts based on weather and harvest demands

Safety Orientation is required and scheduled on/around mid-August.  Attendance is required for Safety Orientation.

  • Perform daily vehicle inspections and basic maintenance (tires, fluids, safety checks)
  • Follow all traffic laws, safety protocols, and Wysocki Family Farm guidelines
  • Enter/exit truck cabs multiple times per shift for tarp securement, breaks, inspections, etc.
  • Assist with unloading or general harvest support tasks as needed
  • Maintain vehicle cleanliness and report any issues promptly
  • Navigate uneven terrain, varying light, and field conditions outdoors in all weather

Minimum Qualifications

  • Active Driver’s License: Must have a valid driver’s license and acceptable driving record.
  • Schedule Flexibility: Ability to work flexible hours based on changing weather conditions.
  • Driving Test: Must pass the required driving test.
  • Basic Skills: Basic reading and comprehension skills to follow instructions/directions.
  • Color Distinction: Ability to distinguish colors in directions and field team markers/flags.
  • Mobility: Ability to repeatedly enter/exit bulk trucks, and safely navigate field/storage/parking areas on foot.
  • Peripheral Awareness: Ability to quickly move head/body to stay aware of surroundings and ensure safety. 
  • Vision: Adequate vision and depth perception in varying light conditions.

Success in This Role Looks Like:

  • You follow directions accurately and drive responsibly at all times
  • You respond quickly to field signals and work safely around heavy equipment
