You will represent our client professionally at every customer location, maintain the condition and cleanliness of your assigned equipment, and report mechanical issues promptly so they are addressed before they become a breakdown
Requirements
A valid Class A Commercial Driver's License is required, along with a minimum of 3 months of verifiable CDL-A driving experience
You must meet all Department of Transportation qualification requirements and hold a current DOT medical certification
An acceptable motor vehicle record and safety history are required
