Job summary

Mission Linen Supply is hiring motivated, sales-driven Route Relief Drivers to drive and service customers on designated routes in your community, grow accounts, and earn real commission on the business you build. This isn't a delivery job with a sales title; it's a B2B sales and account management role that happens to come with a truck.

Proven sales and customer service experience is required, and you will call on prospective customers, upsell, and build long-term relationships.

• Proven sales and customer service experience is required.
• Valid Class C driver's license (no CDL) with a clean driving record for the last 3 years.
• Ability to drive a 26’ bobtail truck.

• Must pass a drug test and clinic physical.
• Tech-savvy, with the ability to learn new systems with minimal training.

Responsibilities

• Own and grow a designated route; this is account management and outside sales, not just delivery.
• Call on prospective customers to solicit new business and inform regular customers of new products or services.
• Upsell existing customers on additional products and services.
• Drive a truck to deliver and pick up linen, uniforms, and related products on schedule; load and unload the truck.

• Maintain inventory and follow company inventory-control policies.
• Handle invoicing, collections, customer signatures, and accurate delivery and transaction records.
• Clean and perform routine maintenance on your truck, and maintain a professional appearance at every stop.
