Conklin Metal Industries is hiring a Class A CDL Driver for our Apex, NC branch. This is a hands on driving position delivering sheet metal, HVAC, and duct fabrication materials to customers throughout the area.

We have been in business since 1874 and are now in our fourth generation of family ownership. With 18 locations throughout the Southeast, we offer the stability of an established company while still maintaining a family oriented culture.

You should be comfortable:

  • Working independently
  • Loading, unloading, and securing freight
  • Performing the physical duties associated with commercial driving
  • Getting in and out of the truck throughout the day
  • Lifting and moving materials
  • Working outdoors in varying weather conditions
  • Following DOT, state, federal, and company safety requirements

Flatbed experience and experience with strapping, chaining, and tarping are especially valuable.
