Job Description

Penske Logistics is a global leader in transportation and logistics solutions, known for engineering innovative and efficient systems that help businesses optimize their supply chains. With a footprint that spans North America, South America, Europe, and Asia, Penske Logistics provides end-to-end freight management and warehousing capabilities for some of the world’s most respected brands. The company focuses on delivering high-quality service, safety, and reliability in all aspects of its operations, ensuring customer satisfaction and operational excellence. Working for Penske means joining a dedicated team of professionals who are committed to safety, customer service, and continuous improvement.

This position is for a full-time Local Class A CDL Truck Driver based in Logan Township, New Jersey. It offers an attractive average annual salary of $120,000, along with a comprehensive benefits package. As a local driver, you will have the advantage of being home daily, providing a stable work-life balance. The schedule involves a five-day work week with weekends required, and dispatching occurs in the afternoon, offering some predictability for your time.

In this role, you will be responsible for making multiple stop deliveries to one of the most recognized convenience store chains in the Mid-Atlantic region, known for its quality, built-to-order food offerings. Your main duties will include unloading trailers, restocking bakery items in stores, and providing exceptional customer service during deliveries. The routes avoid driving in New York City, which can be a significant benefit for drivers who prefer less congested roads.

Drivers will operate late-model, Penske Truck Leasing vehicles equipped with best-in-class specifications aimed at driver comfort and safety. These trucks feature inward and outward-facing in-cab cameras, which enhance safety for both the driver and the public. Penske’s commitment to maintaining excellent equipment and a supportive work environment means you can expect reliable vehicles and strong management support.

Penske promotes a safety-first culture with various incentive programs, including a safety incentive program and a premier driver recognition program. These initiatives not only reward safe driving but also encourage continued professional development. Drivers can also participate in a referral bonus program that can earn up to $5,000 per referred driver, further fostering a team-oriented culture.

The comprehensive benefits package includes paid vacation and holidays from day one, generous retirement benefits, and excellent healthcare coverage encompassing medical, dental, and vision. Additional insurance offerings such as short and long-term disability, life insurance, and AD&D insurance provide peace of mind. Employees also receive company-provided uniforms, access to an employee discount program, and opportunities for career growth through ongoing training and support.

Joining Penske means being part of a respected nationwide company with a proven safety record and a reputation for reliability. Penske pays every Friday, ensuring timely compensation. Being part of this team offers the chance to build a rewarding career with support, quality equipment, and a commitment to driver well-being. If you are ready to advance your truck driving career, Penske provides an excellent opportunity to grow personally and professionally while staying connected to your community by working local routes and being home daily.
