Local Driver (no CDL)

The Full-Time Local Driver position is responsible for transporting
products you know and love to local destinations. A key component of
PepsiCos success, Frito-Lay has been making the very best snacks for
over 80 years. Classic Lays, Cheetos, and Doritos are just a few of
the products in our portfolio. You will also be unloading product,
placing it onto carts, and delivering it via a box truck in compliance
with Federal Motor Carrier Safety Regulation. Hours range from 40 to 45
per week, including both holidays and weekends.

Most local runs have no layovers although required work hours may be up
to the legal limits. We are proud to set the industry standard when it
comes to competitive base pay plus incentives. You would be eligible for
health care benefits, dental and vision, retirement savings benefits
including 401(k) with company contribution, vacation days and much more.

To give you a better understanding of our day to day operations, here is
a list of some of the more frequent tasks that you would be doing:
You will inspect your truck prior to your trip as well as when you
return to the facility
You will load and unload trailers and deliver our product on carts to
Grocery Retailers as well as Frito-Lay Product Exchange Centers
You will obtain signature of receipt from the appropriate point of
contact upon delivery
You may also pick up product due to be returned
You will also be completing logs and other paperwork related to
deliveries

This is a physical job. If you have never held a job that requires
loading and unloading, know that it can be physically demanding,
particularly during inclement weather, or when temperatures reach upper
and lower extremes. How much does a box of chips weigh? The answer is
about 5 pounds, and Local Drivers are moving up to 50 pounds at once,
which is about the same as 6 gallons of water. At times, this also
involves uploading dead stack product, which means that cases are not
palletized and they are stacked from the floor to the ceiling of the
trailer.

If you are a hard worker, youll fit right in with our diverse team.
Please review the following minimum requirements before you get started
on your application:
You will be required to work on some weekends, holidays as well as
off shift
You can lift 15 to 50 pounds with or without a reasonable
accommodation
You are able to climb, bend, reach, stoop, kneel, and stretch for
extended periods with or without a reasonable accommodation
You have the ability to sit for extended periods of time, up to five
hours daily, with or without a reasonable accommodation
You are willing and able to work in an environment that has extreme
temperatures, humidity, hazardous/loud equipment, and slippery surfaces

People often ask what kind of characteristics will make them successful
in this position. Do you think you have what it takes to perform at our
level? Here is an idea of what managers are looking for:
Good Communicator: you express yourself clearly to people inside and
outside of your immediate organization. Furthermore, you are regarded as
a good listener.
Attention to Detail: a sharp eye is necessary because you will review
weight limits on manifests and count cases to make sure orders are
corrects, as well as using visual aids.
Initiative: many team members will tell you that they feel like they
are their own boss. You are in the field by yourself much of the time.
Our best people would put it this way: we need folks who can show up and
work until the job is done.
Flexibility: Like most of the 55,000 Frito-Lay employees nationwide,
you will work weekends and holidays and you will often find that you are
working at different times of the day with o set work schedule.
Safety Minded: safety is everyones job at Frito-Lay. As a driver,
you would carry this mentality with you by practicing defensive
driving.
Coachable: coachable people are able to receive feedback and make
adjustments to their process in the interest of efficiency, speed,
safety, and other shared goals.
Integrity: you help provide feedback on safety hazards, issues with
delivery sites and so forth. We regularly audit ourselves so its
important that we do things right.
Teamwork: you will encounter team members at our delivery centers,
you will speak with managers, and you will partner with individuals
outside of our company at retail stores. We are quick to celebrate the
contributions of individuals, but we never lose sight of team goals.

Does this sound like you? Join nearly 55,000 other Frito-Lay associates
across the country that work hard to bring you the snacks you love by
submitting your application today.
