Job Description

Meals Now is a premier white-glove catering delivery company based in Indianapolis, IN. Unlike typical gig economy apps, Meals Now prides itself on offering an elevated delivery experience, serving as a trusted partner for top national restaurant brands. The company focuses exclusively on catering delivery, providing professional and consistent service that reflects the high standards of its clients' brands. Meals Now drivers serve as an extension of these brands, embodying professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail in every delivery. The company cultivates a high-standard community of independent contractor delivery partners who share its commitment to excellence and customer satisfaction.

As a Catering Delivery Driver for Meals Now, you will specialize in the pickup and delivery of large catering orders from premium restaurant partners. This role is essential in ensuring that food is delivered fresh, intact, and beautifully presented to corporate offices, hospitals, schools, and various event venues throughout Indianapolis. Unlike other delivery roles, this position excludes fast food, grocery, or gig stacking duties, focusing solely on catering orders to maintain quality and service standards. You will be responsible not only for transportation but also for the meticulous setup of catering orders, which may include arranging food trays and ensuring the setup matches given instructions.

This position is classified as an independent contractor role, offering flexible weekday morning and lunch shifts from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM EST. Compensation is paid per delivery, with earnings ranging from $18 to $50 or more per order, plus additional incentives based on punctuality, consistent delivery quality, and photo documentation. Payment is securely processed the next day via Gigsafe, offering drivers prompt and reliable compensation. Meals Now values top-tier drivers who are dependable, communicative, and take pride in representing the brand with a professional appearance and courteous demeanor.

The role demands a reliable vehicle such as a car, van, or SUV, as bike deliveries are generally not suitable for most markets. Drivers are expected to have a catering bag and cart for easy transport and setup, or the willingness to acquire these tools. A valid driver’s license, current insurance, and a smartphone with internet access are mandatory requirements for effective communication and navigation. Additionally, successful candidates must be comfortable with light lifting and catering setup procedures. This job is ideal for motivated individuals seeking flexible work hours with competitive pay and the opportunity to work with a reputable company specializing in high-end catering delivery.
