What are the responsibilities and job description for the Delivery Driver - Non CDL position at Virginia Eagle Distributing Co.?
No CDL? No problem — and no desk either. Virginia Eagle Distributing (VED) is one of Virginia's leading beverage distributors, and we're looking for a motivated, physically active Non-CDL Driver to join the team out of our Charlottesville facility. All you need is a valid driver's license and a clean record. We'll handle the rest.
This is a hands-on, get-after-it kind of job. You'll be lifting cases, building displays, stocking shelves, and covering your route on foot and behind the wheel. If sitting still isn't your style and you take pride in leaving every account better than you found it, this role is built for you. And if you've got your eye on a CDL down the road, VED promotes from within and supports Non-CDL Drivers who want to grow into a CDL role.
The schedule: Tuesday through Friday, home every night. Three-day weekends built in, no strings attached.
