Truck Driver/Shop Manager

Job Description

Job Description

Pfister Energy is a vertically integrated solar and energy storage EPC contractor building commercial and industrial rooftop, carport, and ground-mount projects across the Northeast and Mid-Atlantic. We are hiring a Truck Driver / Shop Manager to run our shop and yard and keep our field crews supplied.

The role is split between driving — hauling modules, racking, conduit, wire, tools, and equipment between our Hawthorne facility, vendors, and active job sites — and managing the shop: inventory, tool and equipment maintenance, staging material for upcoming jobs, and keeping the yard safe and organized.

Key Responsibilities:

• Operate company trucks and trailers to deliver material, tools, and equipment to job sites across NJ, NY, PA, MD, and DE
• Load and secure loads per DOT requirements; complete pre-trip and post-trip inspections
• Receive inbound freight, verify against packing slips and POs, and report damage or shortages same-day
• Operate forklift, telehandler, and pallet jack for material handling
• Own the organization, cleanliness, and safety of the shop and yard
• Maintain tool and material inventory; manage tool check-in/check-out
• Stage and kit material and tools by job number ahead of every mobilization
• Keep tools, small equipment, and the fleet on a preventive-maintenance schedule; coordinate outside repairs
• Manage rental equipment pickup, condition documentation, and on-time return
• Recover tools and surplus material from completed sites; manage waste disposal and recycling
• Maintain PPE and safety stock; remove expired or damaged fall-protection gear from service
• Coordinate daily with Construction Managers, foremen, and Procurement on priorities and shortages

Required Qualifications:

• Valid driver's license with a clean motor vehicle record
• CDL Class B (Class A preferred), or ability to obtain a CDL with company support
• 3+ years of commercial driving and/or construction shop, warehouse, or yard experience
• Working knowledge of load securement and DOT inspection requirements
• Forklift and/or telehandler experience; OSHA 10 (OSHA 30 preferred)
• Comfortable with email, photos, and app-based inventory tracking on a phone or tablet
• Organized and self-directed; able to run the shop without daily supervision 
• Able to lift 50+ lbs repeatedly and work outdoors in all seasons
• Authorized to work in the U.S.; able to pass a background check and drug screen

Preferred Qualifications:

• Solar, electrical, roofing, or mechanical construction material experience
• Familiarity with modules, racking, attachments, inverters, wire, and conduit
• Prior tool crib, inventory control, or fleet maintenance ownership
• Procore or similar construction management software experience
• Clean towing experience with tandem or gooseneck trailers
• Bilingual English/Spanish

Compensation & Benefits:

• Competitive hourly wage based on experience and CDL class, plus overtime.
• Employee Referral Bonuses
• Matching 401(k)
• Health, Dental, and Vision Insurance
• Health Reimbursement Account
• Life, AD&D, Accident, Disability, and Critical Illness Insurance
• Employee Discount Program
• Paid Time Off and Paid Holidays
• Company-provided tools, PPE, uniforms, and phone/tablet
• CDL and certification training support

Schedule: Monday–Friday, typical 7:00 AM start. Occasional early starts, overtime, and weekend work based on project schedules.

Work environment: Shop and yard, over-the-road driving, and active construction sites including commercial rooftops and ground-mount fields. Steel-toe boots and site-required PPE mandatory.
