Truck driver
Driving an enormous truck; a true colossus on the road instead of a simple passenger car. That is life for a truck driver. It brings you joy to be on the road, feeling that sense of freedom. Plan your own route on driving days while visiting a wide variety of locations. Don’t forget your job is of paramount importance. Without you, shelves in supermarkets are not chock-full. And factories can’t make products without the materials you transport. In short, you are indispensable.

Touring your truck
The skies are clear-blue with a small sun. The roads are ever busy, like always in the Netherlands. Strong-willed and with determination you continue your route on the highway. Radio over the speakers. Your truck is never late delivering the cargo. Your clients await your deliveries and are content to see you arrive. Luckily you have a lot of freedom on your trips. You plan the routes yourself, often transporting for appealing companies. By gaining experience in the field and following courses, you can eventually drive multiple types of trucks. That does sound dashing! You are mostly occupied with:
- Planning routes from A to B
- Safely loading and unloading cargo
- Driving different kinds of trucks (semi-trailer trucks, tippers, tankers, or container trucks)
- Bulk transport, raw materials, agri-food, or international transport
The driving force in the driver’s seat
A truck driver accelerates. Not just during rides, but as a person too. The work can be demanding because sometimes you are in transit for quite a while. It requires know-how of roads, traffic, and technical specifications of your truck. Even though you experience freedom, you do have a planning. You are immune to stress and can work with tight schedules. Furthermore, you are the business card for your employer, so you exude friendliness to the client.
