Van Driver / Shipper & Receiver

Ice-ASAP Canada Inc. – Burlington, ON

Full-Time | Tuesday to Saturday | 8-hour shifts | 5:30AM-2:30PM Daily

Position Summary

Ice-ASAP Canada Inc. is seeking a reliable and hands-on Van Driver / Shipper & Receiver to support daily operations at our Burlington facility.

This role will be responsible for helping open and prepare the facility for daily operations, including bagging dry ice, staging and loading customer orders, preparing delivery vehicles, and supporting shipping and receiving activities.

Once the primary delivery trucks have departed, the position will continue supporting warehouse and production activities while also completing shorter, more frequent van delivery runs throughout the day as required.

This is an active, varied role suited to someone who is comfortable working independently, handling physical work, supporting a fast-paced warehouse environment, and interacting professionally with customers.

What We Are Looking For

We are looking for someone who is dependable, flexible and willing to contribute wherever needed.

The ideal candidate understands that this is not simply a driving position. The employee will be an important part of the daily warehouse and shipping operation and will regularly move between delivery driving, order preparation, loading, receiving, inventory and general warehouse support.

For a small and growing operation, we value employees who take ownership of their work, communicate clearly, notice problems before they become larger issues, and are willing to support the team in getting the day's work completed safely and efficiently.
