Job Description

Tryon is a respected and established alcohol beverage distributor deeply rooted in North Carolina's industry, known for its creative and collaborative working environment. The company takes pride in offering a portfolio of local and global brands, providing high-quality beer and wine products to retail and restaurant partners. Tryon emphasizes the value of its people as much as its beverages, fostering an inclusive and supportive culture where employees are encouraged to bring their authentic selves to work every day. With a commitment to diversity and inclusion, Tryon prohibits discrimination based on a wide range of protected statuses to ensure a welcoming workplace for all.

The company offers a comprehensive benefits package to full-time employees, including medical, vision, and dental insurance, plus supplemental health benefits like Health Reimbursement Accounts (HRA), Flexible Spending Accounts (FSA), and Health Savings Accounts (HSA). Employees also benefit from a 401k retirement plan with annual matching, employer-paid life insurance, long-term disability coverage, and various other insurance options. Additional perks include legal and identity protection services, employee assistance programs, travel assistance, paid time off, company holidays, education incentives such as tuition reimbursement, parental bonding leave, volunteer time-off, and service milestone awards.

The Delivery Driver position at Tryon is an essential role that goes beyond transporting goods. As a Delivery Driver, you represent the company's brand and values at every stop. Your primary responsibility is to deliver a curated selection of beer and wine to a wide range of retail and restaurant customers, ensuring that each delivery is timely, accurate, and accompanied by excellent customer service. This is a role that requires pride in your work, the ability to build relationships with clients, and quick problem-solving skills to address challenges on the road.

This full-time position offers guaranteed hours up to 40 per week, meaning if you complete all scheduled shifts but total hours are under 40, Tryon will provide additional hours to meet that threshold. The role includes a competitive sign-on bonus of $2,500, payable after 90 days of successful employment. The typical work schedule runs from Tuesday through Friday, with approximately 10-hour shifts starting at 5:00 AM and continuing until routes are complete. Some overtime and occasional weekend work may be expected.

No commercial driver’s license (CDL) is required for this position, making it accessible to a wider range of applicants. The job demands physical stamina as drivers must safely lift and maneuver heavy products regularly and work in varying weather conditions. Drivers use mobile Proof of Delivery (POD) technology to confirm orders and maintain proper documentation. Maintaining the cleanliness and safety of the delivery vehicle is also a critical responsibility.

Tryon looks for dependable team players who can work independently, demonstrate sound judgment, and manage their time effectively in a fast-paced, deadline-driven environment. Strong communication skills and a commitment to providing outstanding customer service are vital. The company values employees who can adapt to changing road conditions and maintain professionalism across diverse delivery locations. If you are looking for an opportunity to join an established company that values your contributions and offers a comprehensive benefits package along with a supportive culture, the Delivery Driver role at Tryon could be the perfect fit.
