Job Description
US Foods is one of the largest food distributors in the United States, with a strong reputation built on a culture of promotion from within and providing unlimited career growth opportunities. The company places a strong emphasis on ongoing job skills and leadership development training, ensuring its employees continue to advance their careers. US Foods is committed to recognizing and rewarding its employees' hard work and dedication through competitive compensation and comprehensive benefits packages. Known for its customer-centric approach, US Foods maintains a collaborative spirit and a strong work ethic, which are foundational pillars defining the company's success and cultural beliefs.
This job opportunity is for a US Foods Delivery Driver, a critical role within the company. As a Delivery Driver, you will serve as a key representative of US Foods, directly impacting customer satisfaction by delivering a wide variety of products, including meats, produce, frozen goods, groceries, dry goods, equipment, and supplies to the customers' drop-off locations. The role offers a competitive hourly wage starting at $28.98 (70% union rate) with an increase to $32.20 per hour (100% union rate) after successfully completing a 90-day probation period. Additional overtime compensation is also provided.
The position offers local routes, ensuring that drivers can be home every night, with typical work schedules from Monday to Saturday starting early in the morning and ending once deliveries are complete. US Foods provides paid training, pension benefits, paid overtime, and various employee rewards and service recognitions. Drivers will enjoy excellent leadership support and a robust benefits package that includes medical, dental, and vision insurance, pension plans, an employee stock purchase plan (ESPP), life insurance, and paid parental leave.
The delivery driver role requires the physical ability to lift heavy items, sometimes up to 80 pounds, and deliver products even in inclement weather. Drivers are responsible for unloading products safely, using hand trucks where necessary, verifying deliveries with customers, and, in some cases, collecting payments. The company values integrity and reliability, expecting its drivers to build trusting relationships with customers and uphold the company’s cultural pillars.
Joining US Foods means becoming part of a team where employees matter, their contributions are appreciated, and their career development is supported.
