Job Title: Local Class 1 Delivery Driver (Vancouver Island)

Location: Vancouver Island, BC (Routes between Cowichan Valley and Campbell River)

Are you an experienced Class 1 Driver who prefers to stay active and engaged rather than spending hours alone on the highway? Express Employment Professionals, Delta/ Richmond, is looking for dedicated professionals to join our client company's Nanaimo delivery team (or Langford team-see other job description. If you take pride in your work, enjoy interacting with customers, and want a role where you are a valued part of a supportive team, we want to hear from you!

The Role
This is a strictly local, hands-on delivery position. You will be operating multi-stop routes (typically 8 to 15 stops daily) across the Cowichan Valley and Campbell River areas.

This is not a "drop-and-go" job. You will be responsible for the entire delivery process, ensuring freight is handled safely and professionally. Your day-to-day will include:

Safely unloading palletized freight.

Using hand-carts to physically deliver products directly into customer facilities.

Providing excellent, face-to-face customer service at every stop.

It is a physically demanding role that requires effort and attention to detail, but in return, it offers predictable routes, steady work, and the autonomy to manage your own day.

Equipment & Technology
Our client company believe in setting our drivers up for success with top-tier equipment:

A highly reliable, well-maintained fleet backed by a strict preventative maintenance schedule.

A continuous fleet replacement program ensuring you are driving newer, upgraded equipment.

Trailers kept in excellent condition to minimize downtime.

Modern in-cab technology—including digital signature capture, electronic DVIRs, and route optimization—to eliminate unnecessary paperwork and keep your day running smoothly. Our goal is to keep you moving, not troubleshooting mechanical issues.

What Our Client Offers

Competitive Compensation: Hourly wages, comprehensive benefits, safe-driving bonuses, and overtime opportunities.

Non-union environment.

Work-Life Balance: No overnight trips or long-haul driving.

Structured Schedules: Primarily daytime shifts on weekdays.

Route Consistency: Familiar routes that allow you to build lasting relationships with clients.

Active Workdays: A healthy balance of driving and physical activity.

Team Culture: A collaborative environment where drivers are fully supported.

Who We Are Looking For
You will thrive in this role if you:

View yourself as a professional driver, not just a warm body in a seat.

Prefer an active, physical workday over long hours of idle driving.

Enjoy daily interaction with customers and take pride in your service.

Value routine, structure, and safety in your daily work.

Requirements

Valid Class 1 Driver’s License with a clean driving abstract.

Minimum of 6 months of Class 1 driving experience.

Ability to comfortably and regularly lift up to 45 lbs.

Must be bondable and able to pass a background check.

Strong communication skills and a customer-service-oriented mindset.

$33.35/hr plus benefits after probation period. My email is [email protected] and my website for this and other roles is www.expresspros.com/deltarichmondbc
