This role contributes directly to the national food supply chain by ensuring that customer orders are delivered safely, timely, and in excellent condition. The delivery drivers are not just responsible for the physical transportation of goods; they act as important representatives and the face of Core-Mark, building strong relationships and trust with clients through professional and courteous service. This role involves operating company vehicles in compliance with Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations and company policies, performing essential safety checks before and after trips, and handling customer transactions and returns.

Additionally, drivers contribute to the cleanliness and upkeep of their vehicles and loading areas, reinforcing the company’s commitment to quality and safety standards.

This role demands physical capability, including the ability to hand-lift and operate equipment like two-wheelers and lift gates to maneuver and stack product cases and freight. Products can vary significantly in weight, generally ranging from 10 to 35 pounds and sometimes up to 60 to 90 pounds depending on location. Candidates must hold a valid CDL-A, be at least 21 years of age, and possess a clean motor vehicle report over the past three years. Attention to compliance is crucial, including passing background checks, drug screenings, and holding or obtaining a current DOT Health Card.
