Delivery Driver – Class A CDL – Short-Haul Exemption
SHEPHERD ELECTRICAbout Shepherd Electric Supply Since 1892, Shepherd Electric Supply has been the first call when complex, time-critical electrical challenges need to be solved, and reliability truly matters. We move materials accurately and on time, so contractors stay on schedule, projects stay on track, and customers never have to wonder if we will come through. Our success comes from people who take pride in doing things the right way — safely, accurately, and with care for teammates and customers alike. If you want to do work that matters at a company that notices, this is the place. Why This Role Matters Every delivery you make is a promise kept. When a contractor is mid-job and waiting on wire, conduit, or gear, your truck showing up on time is what keeps the project moving. That is not a small thing. That is the whole thing. At Shepherd, drivers are not just logistics — they are the last mile of a commitment we have made to every customer. You carry Shepherd’s reputation on every run. How you show up, communicate, and take care of the load is how our customers experience us. Work Shift and Hours: Monday - Friday, 4:00am - 12:00pm Compensation Details: The maximum expected pay rate for this position is $35.00 per hour. Additional Information: Steel toed boots required. CDL Class A required and must pass DOT medical exam. How This Role Connects to Our Compass We Keep Our Promises: You deliver what was promised, when it was promised. Routes are run on time, loads are complete and correct, and customers never have to call wondering where their material is. If something changes, you communicate early — not after the fact. We Stay Hungry: You know your routes, stay sharp on DOT compliance, and look for ways to make your runs more efficient. You ask questions, take feedback, and bring problems forward so they get solved — not ignored. We Grow Together: You work as part of a warehouse and dispatch team. Your communication, your on-time returns, and your reliability create the conditions for the whole team to succeed. You make their jobs easier, not harder. We Own It: You take responsibility for your load, your vehicle, and your delivery. Pre-trip inspections are done right, not skipped. If there is a discrepancy or a problem on the road, you call it in — you do not hope it resolves itself. We Go Above & Beyond: You treat every delivery like the customer is watching — because they are. You help offload when needed, represent Shepherd professionally, and flag anything that could become a problem before it does. Key Outcomes - Organized by what matters, not just what you do.
