Job Description
We are a well-established food distribution company specializing in the transportation and delivery of perishable food items. Our company takes pride in our reliable service and commitment to maintaining the highest standards of food safety and customer satisfaction. We operate a fleet of delivery trucks and tractor trailers designed specifically for transporting perishable goods, ensuring that our products reach customers fresh and in optimal condition. As a critical part of our operations, our drivers play an essential role in the supply chain, delivering high-quality products to various clients, including retailers, restaurants, and other food service providers. Employee safety, vehicle maintenance, and efficient delivery practices are among our top priorities to maintain operational excellence and meet the expectations of our valued customers.
We are currently seeking a dependable and safety-conscious Delivery Truck Driver/Tractor Trailer Operator to join our team. Under general supervision, the driver will safely operate delivery vehicles to pick up and deliver perishable food items. This role includes performing thorough vehicle inspections at the start of each shift to report any maintenance concerns promptly, ensuring our fleet remains in top condition. Drivers are also responsible for routine documentation of work-related tasks and offering excellent customer service by handling invoicing, payment collection, and product returns. Collaboration with management and sales teams is essential to address customer concerns and resolve any delivery issues efficiently. This position requires the ability to work in various temperature ranges typical of refrigerated environments, a valid Commercial Driver's License (CDL), and adherence to Department of Transportation (DOT) regulations.
The ideal candidate will be punctual, dependable, and possess strong material handling skills. Experience in operating electric pallet jacks and forklifts is preferred, especially within warehouse or produce industry settings. This role demands an individual with excellent communication skills, attention to detail, and a commitment to maintaining safety standards in daily operations. Working as a delivery driver in our company not only offers the chance to be part of a growing team but also provides an opportunity to contribute directly to customer satisfaction and business success. We value our employees and strive to provide a supportive and positive work environment where their efforts are recognized and rewarded.
