Deliver Precision for the Dealership Network
Major automotive dealerships (Ford, Chevrolet, Toyota) operate massive wholesale parts departments, supplying exact, Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) parts to local collision centers and independent repair shops.

You will drive a branded dealership cargo van, delivering highly sensitive, expensive OEM parts—ranging from delicate sensors and expensive headlamp assemblies to massive hoods and fenders. This role is built for clean, professional drivers who excel in B2B logistics.
Dealership Logistics Duties

- Invoice & Core Management: Handle high-value commercial invoices. You will verify part numbers with receiving managers, collect checks or digital payments, and transport core returns back to the dealership.
