Part-Time Floating Delivery Driver - Pet Supplies (Austin)

Floating Delivery Driver (Weekend Schedule)                            

Locally owned for over 75 years, Tomlinson’s Feed is Central Texas’s favorite pet store with the healthiest products and world-class customer service. And, we want you to join our family!     

Winner of the Austin Chronicle’s “Best of Austin” for eight years running, Team Tomlinson’s is passionate about helping our customers find the right nutrition for their pets. Because of our dedicated, bright, and talented Team Members, we are THE local leader for healthy, natural pet nutrition.

This is not working at your average pet store and no one day on the job is the same. But…

• Load and secure product in your personal vehicle and safely transport it to customers from multiple Austin-area locations.
• Offer best-in-class service to our customers and their humans through Tomlinson’s Home Delivery.
• Get to know your customers as a community: their names, their needs, and more.
• Work with all staff members in a manner that contributes to the success of the entire team.
• Actively participate in receiving, rotating, and restocking product when needed.
• Help train new delivery drivers.

Working at Tomlinson’s Feed comes with benefits and passing out belly rubs to customer’s pets is only one of them.
