Job summary

Nutrition One in Phoenix, AZ is seeking a hands-on Logistics Manager to run our school meal delivery operation. You will lead a frontline team of 35–40 drivers and servers, shaping schedules and ensuring smooth daily service.

You’ll own routes, ensure USDA program compliance, track temperature logs, and coach staff across shifts. This role is active, with early starts aligned to school-day service and opportunities to build a strong, reliable team.

Qualifications

• 2+ years of supervisory experience leading a frontline, hourly team — in delivery operations, food service, or a related field.
• A real track record of hiring, scheduling, coaching, and holding a team accountable, not just working alongside one.
• A valid Arizona driver's license with a clean driving record.
• A valid Food Handler's Card (or the ability to obtain one within 5 days of hire).
• A Level One IVP Fingerprint Clearance Card issued by the Arizona Department of Public Safety, required for school-site access (or the ability to apply within 5 days of hire).
• Solid working proficiency in Microsoft Office (Excel, Outlook, Word).

Responsibilities

• Lead the team: supervise, coach, and develop 35–40 drivers and servers across multiple shifts and delivery routes — building schedules, running onboarding, managing attendance and performance, and holding your team accountable consistently and fairly.
• Own the routes: Build and adjust delivery routes around school bell schedules and meal counts, run pre-departure audits, and keep the fleet ready to go every morning.
• Keep it compliant: Ensure your team follows USDA child nutrition program requirements (NSLP, CACFP, SFSP), maintain accurate temperature logs and delivery records, and keep every driver's certifications current.
• Build and develop your team: Handle hiring, onboarding, training, and performance reviews for your drivers and servers, and make sure every pre-departure audit and compliance check gets done right, every day.
