DELIVERY DRIVER
Reports to: HR Manager
Type: Part Time – Non-Exempt
Are you looking to earn some side income or supplement your existing income? Do you have a flexible schedule or desire the ability to choose which day(s) of the week you work? Do you like being on the road, seeing new places, and meeting new people?
We are looking to bring someone on to our team to make deliveries and pick up equipment from companies in various industries across West Michigan. We sell, service, install, and repair a vast array of measurement equipment ranging from calipers and hand tools to larger scales and electronic equipment.
We are seeking someone who wants to work on average 8-10 hours per week but who would be willing to pick up additional shifts as needed (sometimes up to 20 hours per week total) and who would be willing to travel outside of the West MI area and potentially out of state as needed.
All deliveries/pick-ups are typically scheduled on one 8-10 hour day per week, but we have flexibility to schedule 1/2 on one day and 1/2 on another if that works better with your schedule. We are flexible, so please apply if you are interested and we are happy to talk with you about your individual situation and see if that works with our business needs.
