Job Description
US Foods is one of the largest foodservice distributors in the United States, dedicated to serving the foodservice industry with a vast array of products and services. With a rich history and culture that emphasizes promoting from within, US Foods invests heavily in training programs and continuous improvement initiatives. The company prides itself on a strong safety culture, excellent local leadership, and a commitment to fostering employee growth and success. As a key player in the foodservice supply chain, US Foods has built a reputation for reliability and customer service excellence, making it a preferred partner for a diverse range of foodservice operations across the country.
The role of a US Foods Driver is essential to the company’s mission of delivering quality food products to its customers safely and on time. The position offers a competitive wage of approximately $30.92 per hour, plus component pay which may include payments based on mileage, cases handled, or stops made. Drivers typically work five days a week between Monday and Saturday, starting their shifts early between 3 a.m. and 7 a.m. This full-time opportunity comes with comprehensive benefits such as medical, dental, vision coverage, 401(k) plans, life insurance, and paid time off, all supported within a culture that emphasizes total rewards and employee wellbeing.
US Foods Drivers are responsible for safely operating trucks, ensuring timely delivery of products, and maintaining high standards of customer service. The job involves physically demanding tasks, such as lifting and moving products that can weigh from 20 to over 80 pounds repeatedly during a shift. Drivers must be capable of handling inclement weather conditions and frequent stops to deliver products efficiently. Additionally, they perform important tasks including pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections, verifying delivery accuracy, obtaining customer signatures, handling collections/payments when necessary, and unloading products using tools like two-wheelers and pallet jacks.
This role requires individuals who are at least 21 years old, possess a valid CDL Class A license with required endorsements, and have relevant commercial driving experience—either a minimum of six months in any commercial driving industry or three months specifically in food and beverage delivery. Familiarity with operating manual transmission vehicles is preferred and may be required depending on location. Furthermore, candidates must be registered with the FMCSA Clearinghouse, a federal database that helps maintain safety compliance regarding drug and alcohol programs. Effective communication in English is essential, as drivers need to understand highway traffic signs, respond to official inquiries, and fill out necessary reports accurately.
US Foods values integrity, reliability, and the cultivation of trusting relationships with customers. Drivers play a critical role in representing the company’s brand and culture both on and off the road. By joining US Foods, drivers become part of a community dedicated to helping customers succeed while also helping drivers build their own careers within a supportive and forward-thinking organization. This role is ideal for motivated individuals seeking a career that combines independence, responsibility, and the opportunity to contribute directly to the vital foodservice industry.
