Meet our People | Charlotte Lynch, Concrete Truck Driver

When did you start at Adbri, what is your current role and what attracted you to apply for the role?

I started at Adbri at the start of 2025 and currently work as a concrete truck driver for Adbri/Hy-Tec at Rosehill, Sydney. When I relocated to Sydney from Perth, I was looking for a company that offered steady work and good opportunities for growth. Adbri stood out as a place where hard work is valued, and I liked the idea of being part of a team that builds things that last.

What does a typical day at Adbri look like for you?

A typical day for me is up before dawn, hopefully getting to see a beautiful sunrise on the way to work.  I complete my truck inspection, then it’s straight into deliveries: load up, drive to site, pour the concrete, clean the truck, and get ready to do it all again tomorrow.

What do you like most about working at Adbri?

The team that I work with for sure. 

I work with a great bunch of guys who are always willing to lend a hand or offer advice. It makes a tough job much easier when you’ve got a supportive team around you.

What are you most looking forward to achieving or experiencing in your career?

I’d love to become a batcher or a mentor for new drivers, especially women entering the industry. Sharing my experiences and helping others succeed would be a great way to give back.

What advice would you give to someone applying for a role with Adbri?

Do your research, be prepared to work hard, put in the hours and show that you’re a team player. Adbri values people who are reliable, committed, and eager to learn.

What career advice would you share with other women looking to get into the industry or driver role?

Definitely give it a go – everything seems daunting at first. Coming from a small town in Ireland, I never imagined I’d be driving a concrete truck around Sydney, such a big and busy city. But I’ve proven to myself and others that I’m just as capable as anyone else. Focus on doing your job well, and let your hard work and dedication speak for themselves.
