About the position

The primary responsibility of the Ready Mix Truck Driver is to safely operate a concrete mixer truck to deliver concrete to various job sites. This role requires navigating a variety of settings and conditions, including uneven ground, and may involve unloading and attaching extension chutes that can weigh between thirty to fifty pounds. The driver must ensure the safe and efficient operation of the ready-mix truck, which is crucial for the delivery of products associated with CEMEX's ready-mix concrete operations. In addition to driving, the driver is responsible for checking loads to ensure that the product is being transported safely and appropriately. This includes estimating the slump of the concrete, distinguishing between proper and improper mixes, and verifying the color differences between mixes. Communication is key, as the driver must confirm directions with plant personnel before leaving to ensure deliveries are made to the correct customer and job site. Customer satisfaction is a priority, and the driver is expected to develop strong working relationships with both external and internal customers to maximize opportunities for CEMEX. Maintaining the cleanliness of the equipment and personal appearance is also essential. The driver must keep in contact with supervisors and dispatch to receive and transmit delivery instructions, assist other employees as needed, and complete pre and post-trip inspections on the truck. The role also requires adherence to all CEMEX, D.O.T., and O.S.H.A. regulations, meeting or exceeding company safety standards, and performing other job responsibilities as assigned by management.
