Job Description

Gordon Food Service Store LLC is the retail division of Gordon Food Service, a leading foodservice distributor with over 170 stores across the United States. Established with a commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, Gordon Food Service provides high-quality food products and services to a diverse client base, including small foodservice operators, families, non-profit organizations, caterers, and other businesses. Their retail stores offer a fast-paced retail environment where employees can balance work with their personal life while fostering professional development and future growth opportunities. The company operates with a strong customer-first philosophy, championing a 'Customer is King' approach that sets the standard for customer satisfaction within the retail industry.

The Gordon Food Service Store located at 2809 Wilma Rudolph Blvd, Clarksville, TN, is currently hiring for the role of Van Delivery Driver. This position offers weekly pay and operates during store hours from Monday through Saturday from 7 AM to 8 PM, and Sunday from 9 AM to 6 PM. The store is closed on major holidays including Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's Day, and Easter, providing employees with valuable time off. The company emphasizes internal promotion and growth, supported by development programs.

As a Van Delivery Driver, you will play a critical role in ensuring customers receive their orders accurately, timely, and with courtesy. The role requires safely operating a van, following a variable daily route, and delivering products with attention to detail and safe work habits. Beyond deliveries, the position also includes assisting with store operations both before and after route completion. Responsibilities involve managing the loading, delivery, and unloading of foodservice products while maintaining good customer relationships and upholding the company’s high standards of service.

The position is ideal for individuals with previous delivery driving experience coupled with customer service skills. The company requires drivers to have an unrestricted Standard Operator’s License and a clean driving record. Physical ability to handle loads and operate material handling equipment, like a two-wheel cart loading up to 350 pounds, is necessary. The job requires lifting up to 70 pounds and standing or moving for extended periods.

Gordon Food Service takes pride in its comprehensive benefits package designed to support employee wellbeing. Eligible employees can take advantage of profit sharing, a 401(k) plan, employee assistance programs, and 24/7 mental health support through ComPsych. Employee discounts, a discount program called Beneplace, and multiple insurance benefits covering health, dental, vision, short-term and long-term disability insurance are available. The company also offers paid time off, flex time, a company note savings program, a fully paid 12-week maternity leave, and health management resources.

The company fosters an inclusive and respectful work environment, aligning with Equal Employment Opportunity policies. It supports diversity and offers reasonable accommodations throughout the hiring process when needed. Gordon Food Service is committed to maintaining a drug-free and tobacco-free workplace to ensure a safe and healthy environment for all employees.
