Driver & Local Services Operator

(Class A CDL preferred, not required)

Location

Lyman, ME — southern Maine & New Hampshire job sites; multi-day delivery travel

Status

Full-time, year-round · Hourly, non-exempt (overtime-eligible)

Classification

Safety-sensitive DOT / FMCSA position (Class A CDL preffered, not required)

Compensation

$30–36/hour DOE, plus overtime and cross-country trip pay (see Compensation)

Position summary

Beaver Works is a land-clearing and custom-milling business and the U.S. dealer for Turbosawmill. This role is the company's driver and a local field operator. The primary focus is delivering Turbosawmill systems to the company's dealer network across the country — currently seven dealerships — with our flatbed truck, which is rated below the CDL weight threshold, so a commercial driver's license is not required to drive it. This is delivery only: the dealerships handle assembly and customer setup. Between delivery runs, this person works local forestry and sawmill jobs alongside the crew. We'd welcome a candidate who holds a Class A or B CDL, but it's a plus, not a requirement: we're glad to hire the right non-CDL driver.

Key responsibilities

Delivery & hauling

  • Deliver Turbosawmill systems to the company's dealer network across the country — currently seven dealerships — with the company flatbed truck, along with local equipment moves

  • Plan and run multi-day delivery routes to the dealerships; drop off at the dealer (no on-site assembly or customer setup — the dealerships handle that)

  • Load, secure, and transport heavy and oversized loads safely and legally (proper tie-downs, rated chains and binders, working load limits, and a walk-around check before and during the haul)

  • Keep the truck and trailer road-ready through daily inspections and routine maintenance

  • Maintain a DOT medical card and follow hours-of-service rules (see Classification & compliance)

Local forestry & sawmill services

  • Operate the excavator with grapple saw, forestry mulcher, and skid steer for land-clearing and tree removal

  • Run the Turbosawmill to produce dimensional lumber for sale or for customers on-site

  • Perform safe felling, limbing, and processing alongside the crew

  • Carry out daily equipment inspections and routine maintenance

Required qualifications

  • A valid driver's license with a clean driving record

  • DOT medical card (or ability to get one)

  • Experience operating heavy equipment (excavator, skid steer, or similar)

  • Load-securement knowledge; able to secure heavy machinery for transport

  • Willing and able to travel for multi-day deliveries

  • Mechanical aptitude — able to maintain and troubleshoot the truck and equipment

  • Safe chainsaw / tree / land-clearing skills

  • Dependable, safety-minded, and able to work outdoors in all Maine seasons

Preferred qualifications

  • A Class A or B CDL (a strong plus, but not required), and a current DOT medical card

  • Sawmill or milling experience

  • Land-clearing or tree-work experience

  • Heavy-haul or oversized-load experience

  • Forestry training or coursework (a forest-technology certificate or the Mechanized Logging Operations program)

Physical demands & working conditions

  • Frequent driving, including multi-day trips away from home

  • Lifting and carrying heavy materials and equipment components; securing loads

  • Outdoor work in all weather, around job-site hazards including chainsaws, heavy equipment, and sawmill operation

  • Consistent use of required PPE — hard hat, chaps, eye and ear protection, hi-vis, and steel-toe boots

Compensation

  • $30–36 per hour depending on experience (roughly $62,000–75,000 per year at full-time), plus overtime

  • A bonus for long-distance hauls, paid on top of your hourly pay

  • Paid holidays; additional benefits per company policy

Classification & compliance

  • This position is non-exempt under the FLSA; hours are tracked and overtime is paid

  • The company flatbed is rated below the CDL weight threshold, so a commercial driver's license is not required to operate it (a CDL is required only at 26,001 lbs GVWR/GCWR or more, or for placarded hazardous materials). Confirm the truck's rating before hiring

  • Federal safety rules depend on weight and interstate use: if the truck, or truck-and-trailer, is rated 10,001 lbs or more and is driven across state lines, the driver still needs a DOT medical card and the role is subject to hours-of-service and driver-qualification-file requirements — but NOT the CDL drug-and-alcohol testing program or the FMCSA Clearinghouse, which apply only to CDL drivers. If the truck is under 10,001 lbs or used only within Maine, those federal rules generally do not apply. Confirm the specifics with your insurance agent or a DOT compliance service

  • Workers' compensation is classified across field and driving activities to reflect actual work performed

Trade Show & Sales Representative (Turbosawmill)

Location

Remote — may be based anywhere in the U.S. with good access to travel; not tied to southern Maine

Status

Full-time, year-round · Travel-based (regional & national trade shows)

Compensation

Base salary plus commission on Turbosawmill sales (see Compensation)

Position summary

Beaver Works is the U.S. dealer for Turbosawmill. This role represents Turbosawmill on the road — at trade shows, expos, and demonstrations across the country — and drives sales of the product line. It is a travel-based sales position: the primary focus is showing and selling sawmills, generating and following up on leads, and being the face of the brand at industry events. This role does not involve equipment operation or field work, and the person can be based anywhere in the U.S. within reasonable reach of travel.

Key responsibilities

Trade show representation

  • Represent Beaver Works and Turbosawmill at trade shows, expos, and customer demonstrations nationwide; set up the booth and run live sawmill demonstrations

  • Travel to shows and prospective customers across the country (clustered in the winter show season)

  • Be the face of the brand at industry events, and bring back market and competitor feedback

Sales & customer development

  • Generate, qualify, and follow up on leads; manage the sawmill sales pipeline

  • Educate prospects and customers on the Turbosawmill line and guide them to the right system

  • Coordinate with the Beaver Works team to arrange delivery, assembly, and customer handoff after a sale

  • Support marketing with content from the field (demo videos, social media, customer testimonials)

Required qualifications

  • Sales and customer-facing ability; comfortable demonstrating a product and closing sales

  • Willing and able to travel frequently for multi-day trade shows, regionally and nationally

  • Able to learn the Turbosawmill product line well enough to demonstrate it and advise customers

  • Valid driver's license and the ability to manage travel logistics independently

  • Self-directed; able to run a sales pipeline and a travel calendar from a home base

  • Professional, reliable representation of the brand

Preferred qualifications

  • Experience selling equipment, tools, or technical products

  • A background or network in forestry, sawmilling, or woodworking

  • Comfort running a portable sawmill for demonstrations (training provided)

  • Marketing or content skills (demo videos, social media)

Physical demands & working conditions

  • Frequent travel, including multi-day trade shows away from home

  • Extended standing and walking while staffing booths, setting up displays

  • Lifting and handling show materials and demonstration equipment

  • Remote / home-office work between shows (pipeline, follow-up, and coordination)

Compensation

  • Competitive base salary depending on experience (typically $45,000–60,000), plus commission on Turbosawmill systems sold — commission is the primary upside, and strong sellers do well during show season

  • Trade-show travel, lodging, and booth costs are covered by the company

  • Paid holidays; additional benefits per company policy

Classification & compliance

  • FLSA status depends on the final duties: a role whose primary duty is genuinely outside sales may qualify for the FLSA outside-sales exemption (exempt from overtime and minimum wage), but trade-show and promotional work is fact-specific — confirm the classification with counsel before finalizing. If it does not qualify, treat the role as non-exempt with overtime.

  • This is not a DOT / CDL position, so FMCSA and DOT drug & alcohol testing requirements do not apply

  • Because the employee may live and work outside Maine, payroll tax withholding, workers' compensation, and employment-law compliance will follow the employee's home state and the states where they work — confirm the multi-state setup with your payroll provider or counsel
