§ Section opener
Telehandler operator hire.
High-risk licensed operators for materials handling on active sites.
§ 01 — Overview
What a ProChoice telehandler operator brings to site.
Telehandlers move everything on a tight site — bricks, trusses, scaffolding, precast formwork, pallets. The operator has to read the ground, the load and the clearances simultaneously. ProChoice supplies operators who've done it across every kind of Sydney jobsite.
Depending on the attachment and reach, telehandler work falls under SafeWork NSW high-risk work licensing (typically WP class for boom-type configurations above 11 metres). Every operator we deploy holds the relevant licence class and is verified on competency for the model on site.
Whether the machine is a Manitou, JCB, Genie or Merlo, our operator bench covers them. We dispatch with confidence that the operator can start productive work in the first hour of the first shift.

Which telehandler models have your operators used?
Our bench covers the common manufacturers — Manitou, JCB, Merlo, Genie, Haulotte. Tell us the make and model on site and we'll match to operator experience. - 02+
Do I need a telehandler operator with a high-risk work licence?
It depends on the configuration. Boom-type telehandlers operating as EWPs above 11 metres boom length fall under SafeWork NSW WP licensing. Most of our operators hold this licence regardless, so you're covered either way. - 03+
Can a telehandler operator also dog lifts?
Telehandler work is not dogging — lifts where a person needs to direct load placement from a separate position usually call for a dogman in addition. We can supply both on one booking. - 04+
Do you supply the telehandler itself?
No — we're a labour supplier. The telehandler is your hire plant or principal's plant. We supply the licensed operator for it.
