The Driver, Formula CDL-A position is a vital role within this organization, responsible for the transportation and delivery of food and food service products using tractor trailers or straight trucks. This role involves both intrastate and interstate routes, including solo and team routes with out-of-state layovers twice per week, necessitating a driver who is comfortable crossing state lines with no restrictions on the commercial driver's license (CDL).

Drivers are also responsible for ensuring proper loading and unloading of products, performing damage control and quality checks, and securing freight and vehicles upon delivery and at the end of shifts.

The position demands a high level of professionalism and a keen commitment to safety, as well as the ability to handle physical aspects of the work, such as using equipment to move products weighing from 10 to 90 pounds. Additionally, drivers must complete all necessary paperwork accurately, maintain housekeeping conditions in trucks and trailers, and participate as team members supporting the company’s objectives.
