Job Description

CarMax, headquartered in Jacksonville, North Carolina, is a leading automotive retailer known for its commitment to integrity, customer satisfaction, and innovative vehicle buying experience. Established as a trusted name in the automotive industry, CarMax operates with a mission to make car buying and selling as transparent, straightforward, and enjoyable as possible. It has revolutionized the used-car market by eliminating much of the traditional hassle and providing customers with a no-haggle price and extensive vehicle history reports. With numerous locations nationwide, CarMax has built a reputation for professionalism, reliability, and a customer-first approach, making it one of the largest used-car retailers in the United States.

CarMax is currently seeking dedicated and reliable Fleet Drivers to join its logistics team based in Jacksonville, NC. This is a full-time position located at 2900 New Bern Highway, where successful candidates will become an integral part of the company’s logistics network. As a Fleet Driver, you will be responsible for the safe and timely transport of CarMax's vehicle inventory between stores, auctions, vendors, and logistics hubs. This role is essential for maintaining smooth operational flow and ensuring that vehicles are in the right place at the right time to meet customer demand.

The Fleet Driver position at CarMax is more than just a driving job; it’s an opportunity to represent a company built on trust, teamwork, and a deep commitment to safety and quality service. CarMax emphasizes a driver-friendly work culture, offering consistent schedules designed to get drivers home daily, competitive pay packages, and routes that prioritize driver well-being. Employees in this role will appreciate a range of benefits such as paid time off, medical and dental coverage, 401k retirement plans with company match, and exclusive vehicle discounts.

Drivers at CarMax operate company-assigned car haulers, ensuring vehicles are carefully loaded, secured, and transported. Safety is paramount; drivers conduct thorough pre-trip and post-trip inspections to maintain equipment compliance with Department of Transportation (DOT) standards and CarMax’s own rigorous policies. Maintaining DOT logs and ensuring all documentation is accurate and up-to-date are compulsory responsibilities, reflecting CarMax’s commitment to regulatory compliance and operational excellence.

Those who excel in this role will enjoy the pride of being vital contributors in CarMax’s supply chain, ensuring each vehicle is delivered with care and professionalism. The company values clear communication and expects its drivers to present a professional image when interacting with vendors, store associates, and the general public. Physical demands include lifting heavy objects and winching vehicles during loading processes, so a level of physical fitness and endurance is important. Proficiency in operating a 10-speed transmission and the willingness to work outdoors in varying weather conditions are also required for success.

CarMax welcomes applicants with valid Class A Commercial Driver's Licenses who have reliable driving experience, emphasizing safety and a clean driving record. Military veterans with heavy or medium tactical vehicle driving experience are encouraged to apply, providing an inclusive opportunity for those with diverse backgrounds. Current CarMax associates with relevant non-Class A commercial motor vehicle driving experience may also be eligible, reflecting CarMax’s commitment to internal career growth.

Joining CarMax as a Fleet Driver means joining a team that values safety, integrity, and teamwork. It is an opportunity to work with a respected industry leader that strives to elevate standards within the automotive logistics sector by fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment.
