The Shuttle Driver role at Core-Mark is a vital position within the company’s operational framework, involving the transportation of empty trailers to warehouse locations and delivering full trailers to specific shuttle yard or domicile sites. This full-time position primarily operates within a Sunday to Thursday schedule, dispatching between 9 PM and 11 PM, and is located at 30300 Emerald Valley Parkway, Glenwillow, OH 44139. The role offers competitive compensation, approximately $300 per day, translating to an annual earning potential of around $78,000. The position requires a valid CDL A license with a Doubles Endorsement due to the nature of trailer operations involving tandem trailers and straight trucks.

Food and food service delivery drivers at Core-Mark play a crucial role in maintaining the country’s food supply chain, ensuring timely and safe delivery of products that directly impact customers’ businesses and communities. As the face of the company, Shuttle Drivers foster strong relationships with customers by providing reliable, professional service on intrastate and interstate routes. The position demands adherence to Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations, meticulous safety checks including pre- and post-trip inspections, and effective communication with customers, vendors, and co-workers to resolve issues promptly.

Core-Mark values collaboration and teamwork, with Shuttle Drivers acting as integral members of the department by executing assigned duties to uphold the company’s high standards of service and safety. The role encompasses responsibilities such as inspecting tractor-truck and trailer units to meet safety standards, securing freight properly, following detailed route schedules, and performing hook/unhook procedures safely. Drivers are also expected to manage equipment housekeeping and assist with loading dock operations as needed, contributing to a smooth and efficient distribution process.

This opportunity is ideal for individuals who enjoy active work environments, have strong driving skills, and are committed to safety and customer service excellence. Candidates must meet state licensing requirements, maintain a clean motor vehicle record, pass drug and road tests, and obtain or hold a current DOT Health Card. Physical capability is essential, as the job involves manual lifting and the operation of equipment like two-wheelers and lift gates for handling freight typically between 60 and 90 pounds. Overall, the Shuttle Driver position at Core-Mark offers a rewarding career path with growth potential within an established and respected company dedicated to serving communities and supporting America’s food distribution network.
