Your apprenticeship at ELA

As a professional driver, you are mainly involved in freight transport by truck. You spend a lot of time behind the wheel and know the road traffic regulations at home and abroad. Before setting off, you carry out a takeover and departure check on the vehicle. You check, for example, the wheels, the engine and the functionality of the brake system. You ensure that the weight of the load is evenly distributed and check the documents to be carried as well as the vehicle signs that may be required depending on the freight.

  • Completed school education
  • Technical understanding
  • Sense of responsibility, prudence and ability to concentrate
  • Observational accuracy and attention
