Job Description

Cowtown Materials, Inc., a prominent national building materials distributor located at 3489 Maple Street, Abilene, TX, is part of SRS Distribution Inc. This company prides itself on being a leading supplier in the building materials industry with a robust network of subsidiaries and committed to inclusive hiring practices. They emphasize a family-like work culture where team members are considered the company's greatest asset. With a strong focus on training, growth, and work-life balance, Cowtown Materials provides abundant opportunities for career advancement while maintaining a supportive and safety-focused work environment. The company adheres strictly to equal employment opportunity laws, ensuring a discrimination-free workplace for all employees regardless of race, gender, disability, veteran status, or any other protected characteristic.

The Delivery Driver role at Cowtown Materials is integral to the company’s commitment to excellent customer service and operational efficiency. This position requires the safe and efficient operation of commercial motor vehicles, adherence to stringent state and federal regulations, and the ability to deliver freight ensuring it arrives undamaged and on time. Delivery Drivers will work as part of a collaborative team to load, transport, and unload building materials to both commercial and residential job sites. This role demands physical stamina to lift heavy materials and a professional demeanor when representing the company to customers.

Beyond mere transportation, this position requires a strong sense of responsibility and compliance with Department of Transportation standards and company policies. The driver's duties encompass pre-trip vehicle inspections, proper loading and unloading procedures, safe driving practices, and meticulous record-keeping to ensure regulatory compliance. Drivers must be adept at managing stressful situations involving deadlines, multitasking efficiently, and communicating effectively with management and clients. Furthermore, this role actively fosters servant leadership principles by valuing diversity, teamwork, and top-notch customer interactions, contributing to a harmonious and inclusive workplace culture.

The company offers a competitive salary paid weekly and a comprehensive benefits package designed to support employees' health, well-being, and professional growth. Cowtown Materials encourages candidates with a valid Class B CDL license — with preference given to those holding a Class A — and a clean driving record over the past three years to apply. This role also involves physical demands such as frequent lifting of materials up to 80 pounds and extended periods of driving and outdoor work conditions. The company ensures an environment where safe practices are paramount, employees are valued, and career growth is a consistent priority.
