Who We Are
Headquartered in Puslinch, Ontario, with a second location in Trenton; Bryan’s Auction Services Ltd. is the home of great deals! We're a safe and reliable marketplace that connects a nation of buyers and sellers to delivery a winning experience. Dating back to our first auction in 1972, Bryan’s has evolved from small in-person auctions to a trusted online platform that makes buying and selling effortless and efficient. By offering a seamless end-to-end transparent process, Bryan’s has grown into a well-recognized and respected business in the industry with a steady history of growth and profitability providing winning experiences for everyone.

The Opportunity
We are seeking two part-time AZ/DZ Drivers to drive passenger vehicles, snow plows, garbage trucks, busses, and other large vehicles and unloaded equipment from various Southwestern Ontario-pickup points to our yards in Puslinch and Trenton, and to provide customer service and other vehicle yard and warehouse-based assistance setting up the auction, during viewing, and during customer pickup. Drivers will not be hauling materials or using heavy equipment, rather simply moving the vehicles from one location to another.
