About the Role

This is a hybrid role that keeps you moving between the road and our refrigerated warehouse. You'll deliver fresh produce to customers across the Twin Cities metro in a 26' non-CDL box truck, and when you're not on a route, you'll work in the warehouse receiving, staging, checking, and loading orders. What leaves our dock is what shows up at our customers' doors, so accuracy and care matter at every step.

• Perform daily pre-trip and post-trip vehicle inspections
• Verify orders, delivery counts, and product quality before and after each stop

• Check every order before it ships, making sure quantities, products, and labels match the order sheet
• Count items, add quantities, and confirm totals against order paperwork

• Operate pallet jacks safely; operate a forklift when certified
• Keep pace with a fast-moving operation without cutting corners
• Keep work areas clean and safe

Qualifications

Required

• Valid Class D driver's license
• Clean driving record, with no exceptions
• Comfortable driving a 26' box truck in city, suburban, and highway conditions
• Comfortable working in a cold, refrigerated warehouse for extended periods
• Comfortable with basic math: counting, adding quantities, and checking totals
• Able to lift up to 50 lbs repeatedly
• Reliable, with a strong work ethic and good time management
• Strong attention to detail and accuracy
• Able to work independently and to ask questions when unsure
• Willing to work overtime as needed

Preferred

• Warehouse, shipping, fulfillment, or delivery experience
• Pallet jack experience
• Forklift certification (a plus, not required)

Physical Demands and Work Environment

• Warehouse time is spent in a refrigerated space that stays cold the entire shift
• Delivery time includes all Minnesota weather conditions and frequent in-and-out of the truck
• Regular lifting, carrying, pushing, and pulling of up to 50 lbs
• Standing, walking, bending, and climbing in and out of the truck for most of the shift
• Day shift of 9:00 AM-6:00 PM

What We're Looking For
