Vacant job

Do you want to drive Europe's heaviest rigs? We are looking for more drivers!

At Kaunis Iron, we do more than just mine iron ore – we are building the sustainable mining industry of the future with respect for people, the environment, and each other. We are now looking for more truck drivers who want to become part of our team when needs arise throughout the year.

Are you a driver who appreciates order, safety, and truly impressive rigs? Then this might be the job for you.

Safety always comes first

For us, safety is not just a word – it is part of everyday life. We want you to feel secure behind the wheel from your very first day of work.

Therefore, you will receive:

• A thorough introduction where you get to know the vehicles, routes, and our working methods.
• An experienced mentor who stays by your side during the introduction period.
• Winter training on ice tracks to ensure you feel safe even when roads show their toughest side.
• A work team where we help each other and where it is natural to speak up if something feels unsafe.

We believe that everyone gets home safely after their shift – every single day.

We drive sustainably – for the future and for each other

Sustainability is a natural part of our work. As a driver with us, you play a key role in driving both safely and fuel-efficiently.

We actively work with Eco Driving to develop a driving style that reduces fuel consumption, wear and tear, and climate impact – without compromising safety. A smooth, planned, and responsible driving style makes a difference for the environment, the working environment, and the economy.

At our company, safety and sustainability always go hand in hand.

About the job

You will transport iron ore concentrate between Kaunisvaara and the transshipment terminal in Pitkäjärvi. The transports depart from Junosuando, and you will drive some of Europe's heaviest rigs – with a total weight of 90 tons.

You will operate modern Volvo Aero trucks, 700 hp, equipped with SLP superstructures and 5-axle trailers.

The best part? You can focus on driving. We have staff who handle loading and unloading.

In our modern facilities, there is space for recovery with a lunch room, shower, and sauna – because you should feel good both during and after work.

We are looking for someone who has

• CE driving license
• Valid YKB (Certificate of Professional Competence)
• Digital driver card
• Good teamwork skills and a strong focus on safety

Previous experience driving heavy trucks with trailers, buses, or ore transport is an advantage, but the most important thing is that you are responsible, eager to develop, and share our focus on safety, quality, and a sustainable working approach.
