Apply for an International Truck Driver Job
Looking for a stable, well-paid truck driving position with plenty of variety on international routes?
GOtalent recruits experienced professional truck drivers.
You will be employed by a Lithuanian transport company and operate across international freight networks. Depending on current transport demand, Romania may appear on your schedule as a delivery destination, collection point or part of a longer route towards Southeastern Europe.
What You Get
GOtalent works with Lithuanian transport companies whose fleets operate across numerous European markets.
Depending on the vacancy, you can benefit from:
- Long-term employment with a Lithuanian transport company
- Regular cross-border driving assignments
- Experience across Central, Western and Southeastern Europe
- Social guarantees and employment benefits
- Additional earnings linked to mileage and performance
- Assistance when relocating to Lithuania from abroad
- Opportunities to work with different trailers and freight categories
Requirements
Current vacancies are intended for professional drivers who already have experience with international haulage.
To apply, you should have:
- A valid CE-category driving licence
- At least 6 months of international truck driving experience
- Relevant identification and professional documents
Depending on the vacancy and qualifications you already hold, you may also need:
- Code 95 professional qualification
- Digital tachograph driver card
- ADR certificate for dangerous or specialised freight
- Applicable residence or employment documentation
For everyday communication with dispatch and logistics teams, basic English is usually enough. Romanian can be useful during local interactions when a route takes you through the country, but it is not a general requirement for these Lithuania-based jobs.
Our recruitment team will review your documents and tell you exactly which qualifications are required for the specific vacancy.
Where You’ll Drive
Your employment begins in Lithuania, but the actual freight work may cover a broad part of the European road network.
Depending on the assignment, you may drive through:
- Romania
- Other European destinations
Romania occupies an important position between Central Europe and the Balkans. Freight routes connect the country with Hungary, Bulgaria, Serbia and Moldova, while longer international services continue towards Germany, France, Belgium and the Netherlands. This makes it a common transit point for longer international assignments.
Your exact route always depends on cargo, customer orders and the Lithuanian transport company’s current logistics planning.
Truck Types
International freight requires different equipment depending on the cargo being moved and the route assigned.
You may work with:
| Type | Used for |
|---|---|
| Standard Tautliner | General cargo, industrial freight and export shipments moving between European markets. |
| Refrigerated | Food, pharmaceuticals and other perishable or temperature-sensitive goods. |
| BDF – SWAP | Swap-body systems used in organised distribution, parcel transport and structured logistics networks. |
| Car Transporter | Specialised carriers moving vehicles between dealerships, ports and distribution hubs. |
| Cistern | Fuel, chemicals and food-grade liquids, with ADR certification often relevant for certain loads. |
| Flatbed | Construction materials, machinery, steel products and oversized freight. |
When completing your application, include details about the trucks, trailers and cargo you have handled before. That information helps GOtalent identify vacancies where your existing experience will be most useful.

Would I be employed in Romania?
No. Your employment is based in Lithuania, and you work for a Lithuanian transport company. Romania may appear on your international route, but it is not your official employment base.
What sort of assignment could take me to Romania?
You might deliver cargo there, collect a return load or travel through Romania on a longer Southeastern European route. The country is well connected with Hungary, Bulgaria and other regional freight markets.
Could I drive to Constanța or other Romanian logistics hubs?
Potentially. Bucharest, Cluj-Napoca, Timișoara and Constanța are important freight centres, and Constanța also provides access to Black Sea port logistics. The locations included in your actual route depend on current cargo orders.
Is Romanian required for the job?
No. Basic English is normally sufficient for communication with dispatch and international logistics teams. Romanian may help during local interactions, but it is not a standard requirement.
How experienced do I need to be?
You should have at least 6 months of international truck driving experience and hold a valid CE-category driving licence. Refrigerated, ADR or Western European route experience may broaden the vacancies available to you.
What happens before my first working rotation?
