About The Position

Penske Logistics is hiring a full-time Class A CDL truck driver to deliver grocery products to retail store locations for a major grocery chain. Drivers average 10 to 15 stops per week, handle no-touch freight, and are expected to maintain a professional and courteous demeanor when interacting with customers. The role is home daily and requires occasional trips into New York City based on business needs, so scheduling flexibility is necessary.

The schedule is a five-day work week with consecutive days off on Wednesday and Sunday. Start times are between 4:00 AM and 6:00 AM. The position requires regular, predictable, full attendance and compliance with applicable laws, regulations, and safety standards. It is regulated by the Department of Transportation or designated safety sensitive, and requires alert, safe operation of a motor vehicle and responsibility for the safety of oneself and others.

The position offers an average annual pay of $102,000, a driver referral bonus program of up to $5,000 per referral, and a comprehensive benefits package. Penske describes training opportunities, career mobility, and a stable nationwide company with a strong safety record.
