Their commitment to quality and customer satisfaction extends beyond their products to every interaction and service provided, making them a trusted brand in the home furnishings market.

As a Delivery Driver at Room & Board, you step into a role that goes far beyond simply making deliveries. You will be creating extraordinary moments for customers, serving as a strong brand ambassador, and contributing to a positive reputation for the company's high-quality American-made home furnishings. The position offers a unique blend of outdoor and indoor activities, balancing local delivery routes with essential warehouse tasks such as product staging, assembly, inspection, and quality control. This cross-functional approach ensures that every item delivered meets the company’s rigorous quality standards before reaching the customer.

In this role, you will work as part of a two-person delivery team, providing friendly and professional service to residential and business customers in the Chicago area. The position requires physical stamina, agility, and an enthusiasm for a lively and active workday.

The work schedule typically runs Tuesday through Saturday, from 6:30 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., with occasional opportunities for paid overtime. The office and warehouse are located at 2525 W. 22nd Street, Oakbrook, IL 60523. The company offers a competitive salary ranging from $50,000 to $55,000 per year, which translates to approximately $24.04 to $26.44 per hour, dependent on experience and qualifications, with guaranteed pay and potential for overtime.

Room & Board prioritizes the well-being of its employees by offering holistic benefits that cover physical, emotional, and financial health. These include a generous 401(k) match, profit sharing, three weeks of paid vacation, and a suite of additional perks designed to foster a positive and healthy work-life balance. The company culture is built on values of mutual respect, accountability, and trust, creating a workplace where everyone’s contributions matter and teamwork thrives.

This role is ideal for individuals who want more than just a job; it offers the chance to be part of a meaningful mission, contributing to a company that values sustainability, quality, and inclusion. Delivery drivers at Room & Board are not just drivers; they are crucial contributors to the company’s success and reputation, empowered to deliver not only products but exceptional customer experiences.
