Job Description
Meals Now is a distinctive white-glove catering delivery company that stands apart from typical gig delivery apps. Trusted by top national brands, Meals Now specializes exclusively in premium catering deliveries, maintaining a high standard of professionalism, quality, and reliability. As an independent contractor with Meals Now, drivers act as direct extensions of our client brands, upholding a polished and professional appearance and delivering consistent, dependable service to various high-profile venues such as office buildings, hospitals, schools, and event centers.
Located in Lexington-Fayette, KY, this role offers an exceptional opportunity for experienced delivery partners who prefer a catering-only focus, explicitly excluding fast food, grocery deliveries, or gig stacking. Meals Now emphasizes quality over quantity and values drivers who are dependable, communicative, and meticulous in their work. In return, drivers receive pay per delivery, ranging widely from $18 to $50 or more depending on order complexity and distance, plus additional incentives linked to on-time performance, tier levels, and the quality of their delivery setup photos.
This position is categorized as an Independent Contractor role, ideal for delivery professionals seeking a flexible schedule with weekday morning and lunch shifts between 8:00 AM and 11:00 PM EST. Payments are made promptly the next day via Gigsafe, providing financial reliability and transparency. Meals Now is committed to creating a streamlined, respectful delivery experience, wherein drivers have the tools, support, and expectations to succeed and represent some of the finest restaurants and brand partners in the market.
The role requires pick-up and delivery of large catering orders from premium restaurant partners, ensuring that meals arrive fresh, complete, and professionally presented. Drivers also set up the food at the delivery location, following precise instructions to meet client satisfaction. A clean and professional visual appearance is paramount, as drivers reflect not only Meals Now but also the broader brand reputation of their restaurant partners.
In addition to delivering food, drivers must be comfortable with setup responsibilities and light lifting. Precision, punctuality, and courtesy are integral to the role, and attention to detail is expected with requirements such as submitting setup photos as proof of delivery quality. This role is not just about transporting food; it is about delivering an elevated catering experience that enhances client and customer satisfaction at every stop.
Meals Now prides itself on working with a selective group of high-performing drivers in each market. Ideal candidates are not only reliable and professional but also communicative and invested in offering exemplary customer service. If you pride yourself on being an elite delivery partner who values consistency and top-tier performance, Meals Now invites you to join their team and deliver excellence with every order.
