You'll work directly with customers and our team to figure out how to safely get equipment where it needs to go. Sometimes through tight doorways, stairs, busy kitchens, and other challenging locations. When you're not on deliveries, you'll help with warehouse operations and keeping our inventory and equipment organized and tidy.

• Handling large, heavy, and awkward equipment
• Spending significant portions of the day on your feet
