7d•Onsite

About The Position

We are seeking dependable and efficient CDL Class A truck drivers to drive tractor trailers for local deliveries of medical diagnostic equipment. Must be organized, detail oriented, and comfortable working independently. A clean driving record and commercial driving experience is a must. CDL-A drivers are responsible for the safe and timely movement of tractor trailers configured for mobile medical imaging (MRI, PET & CT mobile units). The MRI/CT techs in the mobile units scan during the day, so drivers will move trailers at night to locations where appointments are scheduled. Drivers report to designated parking location daily to pick up their truck, then drive to hospitals & medical clinics. Once the Driver arrives at a client location, they drop off or pick up their trailer. Set up and tear down requires drivers to get out of their truck and unload or pack up the trailer, 30-45 minutes. Drivers will typically transport 1-2 trailers a night. Drivers will be provided training for 4-6 weeks to learn the routes and to learn how to set up/tear down trailers.
