Familiarity with fleet management software, route optimization tools, and data analytics platforms is typically required.

Driver Operations professionals often manage a variety of responsibilities, including coordinating schedules, supporting drivers, and resolving logistical issues. One common challenge is balancing the needs of drivers with company policies and customer expectations, which requires strong communication and problem-solving skills. Additionally, adapting to fast-paced environments and handling unexpected changes, such as last-minute route adjustments or driver absences, is key. Candidates can prepare by developing organizational skills, being comfortable with technology platforms used for route management, and fostering a collaborative mindset to work effectively with both drivers and cross-functional teams.

Job description

Hajoca Corporation is one of the country’s largest privately-held wholesale distributors of plumbing, heating & cooling, and industrial supplies. Founded in 1858, Hajoca is a company based on the principles of “Service, Integrity, Reliability,” and on relationships of trust and support with teammates, customers, and suppliers.  Throughout its history, Hajoca has played an active role in shaping advances in plumbing. However, we attribute our success to two simple truths; a unique business philosophy and talented people. Hajoca is all about the people, who give us our advantage, and who will guide us successfully into the future. 

Although Hajoca is a large company, we work in a decentralized environment where each of our locations, called Profit Centers (PCs), is run by the Profit Center Manager as if it were their own small business. A typical Profit Center is the heart of our business and consists of a warehouse, counter, sales office, and (sometimes) a showroom. Our PCs conduct business under unique trade names and offer a customized business approach, honoring what’s special about each local marketplace.


Weinstein Supply is one of those trade names and is looking for a Sales, Operations, and Leadership Trainee at their Wilmington, DE location. 


Pay for Sales, Operations, and Leadership Trainee is between $20 and $30 per hour at this location.


Are you looking to pursue a long-term career in sales, business operations, or management? Do you have a strong work ethic and an eagerness to learn? Do you enjoy interacting with people and building relationships? If so, then we’d like you to join our team as a Sales & Leadership Trainee. 

About the Program:

The Sales & Leadership Development program is a multi-year rotational program aimed at investing in each trainee's future by providing exposure to all aspects of our business. During the program, we work in a structured, thorough manner to develop an aligned understanding of your skill set and long-term career goals.

  • Live into your dreams. We'll pair your passion, skill set, and career goals with our business needs. When the program is complete, you'll have the opportunity to pursue a long-term career in sales, operations management, profit center management, or a variety of other career paths that suit your individual goals and the needs of the business.
  • Learn the business. Your learning path will include on-the-job experience supplemented with coaching from experienced managers, book and computer courses, and visits with customers and vendors. You'll learn about all aspects of our business (including warehouse procedures, operations, and sales) with guidance along the way from mentors and managers.

Here's a look at what you'll accomplish in each phase:

Phase 3:

  • Learn about and gain experience working in sales. Complete tasks related to pricing and margin management, bids, quotes and submittals, product procurement, and job scheduling.

  • Develop relationships with vendors

  • Participate in joint sales calls with outside salespersons

Phase 4:

  • Participate in an in-depth career discussion with your assigned Profit Center Manager and discuss which aspect of business you’re interested in pursuing.
