Sparrow Bakery PDX is a busy, medium-sized, regional wholesale and retail bakery and cafe that specializes in hand-laminated croissants and artisan breads. We are looking for a Full-time (4am-12pm) Delivery Driver to join our team!
As a Driver for Sparrow, you will arrive at the bakery (located in 'The Union at St. Johns') for an early call at 4am to help pack and deliver fresh pastries to restaurants, cafes, and grocery stores around town. Our Nissan mini van, equipped with a backup camera and studded winter tires, is very easy to drive! Drivers will also adjust invoices on the computer and pitch-in to wash delivery vehicles and food delivery bins.
Driving for Sparrow can be a successful position for you if you have enjoyed customer service jobs in the past, and consider yourself to be tidy, organized, and have a good social demeanor. Here, you are in the service of chefs, business owners, and grocery clerks, and it will be your job to seek to meet their needs and form good relationships throughout the route. Our Drivers will also need to have a penchant for accuracy and remembering small details. Each account deserves "white glove" service, and knowing what individual chefs and business owners prefer will help the Driver to exceed expectations in this position. The position necessitates a current Oregon Drivers License and a safe driving record. You must adhere to speed limits and rules of the road, in addition to being extremely cautious and courteous while representing our brand. This position is never boring; it's physical, challenging and rewarding.
Health plan benefits at 60 days of FT employment, as well as 401k and PTO at one year. We work with our employees to give you a regular, consistent schedule that works best for you and your family, but the Fri-Mon schedule is pretty firm for this particular position in order to adhere to the specific needs of our awesome wholesale accounts!
