Job Description

Sysco Corporation is a leading global foodservice distribution company dedicated to delivering food, equipment, and supplies to restaurants, healthcare, and educational facilities among other customers. Headquartered in Houston, Texas, Sysco has established itself as a cornerstone within the foodservice industry, providing a wide range of products that include fresh produce, meats, frozen foods, dry goods, and various kitchen supplies essential for daily operations in foodservice businesses. With a commitment to excellence and superior customer service, Sysco supports a vast network of customers by maintaining quality and reliability across its extensive distribution channels.

Sysco offers meaningful career opportunities for professionals looking to grow personally and professionally while contributing to the success of a dynamic organization. The company prides itself on an inclusive work culture where team members are encouraged to develop skills, take initiative, and engage actively in delivering services that exceed customer expectations.

Currently, Sysco is actively recruiting CDL-A Delivery Truck Drivers for their Lincoln, Nebraska location. This role is vital to the company’s operations, as CDL-A drivers are responsible for safely and efficiently operating tractor-trailers to deliver various products such as meats, produce, frozen foods, groceries, dry goods, and supplies to customer locations on assigned route schedules. Drivers not only manage the transportation of goods but also play a crucial role in building long-standing customer relationships through positive interactions and familiarity with each customer's specific needs and processes.

The position offers competitive pay, starting at $29 per hour, with opportunities to earn up to $100,000 annually, including base pay, overtime, and various incentives. Drivers also enjoy a generous per diem pay of $40 per night for 1-2 nights per week, paid vacation and holidays, and a comprehensive benefits package including healthcare from day one of eligibility, retirement benefits, tuition reimbursement, and more. Sysco emphasizes career growth, promoting from within and providing ongoing job skills and leadership development training.

Ideal candidates for this role are dependable, safety-conscious, and able to perform physical tasks associated with loading and unloading freight, handling weights averaging 40-60 pounds and up to 100 pounds periodically. Flexibility is essential, as overtime, weekend, and holiday shifts may be required along with interstate travel. The company values individuals with strong communication skills and the ability to maintain a clean driving record, reinforcing Sysco’s commitment to safety and professionalism on the road.

This opportunity at Sysco is not only a job but a career path for those seeking stability, growth, and the chance to be part of a company at the heart of food and service. Candidates interested in joining Sysco's team are encouraged to apply promptly to begin a rewarding career with a trusted industry leader in foodservice distribution.
