  • Provide basic support on frozen beverage equipment (such as slush machines), including simple troubleshooting, reporting service issues, and coordinating with service teams when needed.
  • Accurately count, inspect, and load products onto the truck each morning to ensure correct inventory and product quality for the day’s route.
  • Maintain a clean, safe, and well‑organized delivery/sales vehicle and follow all company safety, driving, and operational procedures.

  • Basic mechanical and electronic troubleshooting skills (experience with beverage or refrigeration equipment is a plus).
  • Experience in distribution, warehouse, or food & beverage environments.
  • Fluent in English, with strong communication and interpersonal skills.
  • Clean driving record and ability to pass pre‑employment testing (drug screen, background check, physical abilities test).
  • Reliable transportation to commute to work.
