Summary
Under the direct supervision of the Nutrition Program Supervisor, the Meal Delivery Driver is responsible for the pickup and delivery of meals and the packing of delivery bags. The Meal Delivery Driver will drive either an assigned agency vehicle or their own vehicle based on vehicle availability. If assigned as a hub route driver, the Meal Delivery Driver will distribute bags to hub route drivers from the assigned site. Based on the day’s open routes, the driver will be assigned a meal route to deliver before returning to the hub site to pick up delivery bags. The Meal Delivery Driver will generally be scheduled three to five days per week, Monday through Friday, between 9:30 a.m. and 2 p.m., to cover any open meal delivery routes and ensure uninterrupted service to clients.
