At least 2 years of experience driving in the yard, valid CDL license preferred
High school diploma or GED equivalent
Warehouse and forklift experience strongly preferred
Stable work history and strong attendance record
Commitment to safety, quality, and accuracy
Ability to work independently and as part of a team
Dependability matters — we value team members who show up ready to contribute and take pride in their work

Knowledge, Skills, and Abilities Required:

Knowledge of tractor-trailer operation and air brake systems
Ability to safely operate an 18-wheel commercial vehicle, including in tight spaces
Knowledge of forklift operating procedures and warehouse practices
Basic reading, math, and documentation skills
Strong attention to detail and safety awareness

Food Safety Responsibilities:

Ensures products and materials are handled and stored according to SQF Code 11.4.1 Staff Engaged in Food Handling and Processing Operations and Code 11.6.1 Receipt, Storage, and Handling of Goods.
Ensures shipping and receiving procedures follow SQF Code 11.6.5 Loading, Transport, and Unloading Practices.

Why You'll Love Working Here:

Named one of Birmingham's Best Places to Work (Birmingham Business Journal, 2025)
Competitive pay with opportunities for growth
Supportive team environment where your work matters
Great benefits and a company that invests in your success

If you're a safety-minded driver who enjoys staying active and being part of a team, apply today and join the Red Diamond family.
