The role of Class A Driver at Core-Mark is critical within the food supply chain, ensuring timely and safe delivery of food products and food service items to customers. These drivers are more than just transporters; they represent the company’s commitment to reliability and customer service, building lasting relationships as they fulfill their delivery duties.

This position demands physical capability due to the handling of freight weighing up to 90 pounds and the ability to use various equipment such as two-wheelers and lift gates. Professional development is supported and preferred qualifications include experience with commercial driving, food service distribution, and familiarity with electronic logging and scanning systems. Core-Mark ensures a safe, inclusive workplace with a strong emphasis on equal employment opportunity, making this an ideal position for drivers looking to advance their careers in a stable and thriving company environment.
