Hi Paul.

My hubby is an HGV driver and we've been in NZ since February.

Hubby got a job while we were still in the UK so we came out on General Work Visas and will apply for PR after 6 months.

Hubby works for Halls Refrigerated Transport and I'm sure they're looking for more Drivers.

Try the website www.halls.co.nz - It gives you info on the company and also any vacancies they've got.

Would be well worth emailing them I'm sure.

Good luck with your plans.
