About this job
Our company in Elsmere, KY is looking for a CDL-A driver to deliver product to Chick-fil-A restaurants using new equipment and a home-daily schedule.
Schedule
- You'll work Sunday through Friday, starting between 6pm and 10pm (or until the work's done), with Saturdays off.
- Expect to work 40 to 45+ hours per week depending on available routes.
- Some flexibility is required around weekends, holidays and rotating shifts based on business needs.
- About 5% travel for operator/market visits, supplier visits and related conferences.

What you'll haul
- You'll deliver to 4-6 Chick-fil-A restaurants per shift, unloading and staging product within each restaurant's delivery window.
- You'll handle pickups and returns (pallets, carts, etc.) and submit the related paperwork.
- Back at the distribution center, you'll help unload the truck and put equipment away.
- You'll drive a new automatic Kenworth T680 with leather air-ride seats, GPS, and side/rear cameras, pulling a 48-inch Great Dane trailer with electric side lift gates. Battery-powered pallet jacks and Samsara mobile devices (showing where to park/unload, plus in-cab ELD charging) support the job, and an in-house maintenance team keeps the trucks running.

- Must pass a DOT Clearinghouse application, MVR and medical card checks, a drug screen and a background check, and meet all FMCSA requirements.
- Able to read, write and speak English well enough to follow instructions, complete paperwork, and interpret labels, pick lists, scanner prompts and signage.
- Physically able to lift up to 65 pounds repeatedly per shift, occasionally move loads up to 2,000 pounds with mechanical help, and work in temperatures ranging from -10F to 100F, mostly at night.
