About the Role

Ryder is hiring a Class A CDL Truck Driver in Pelham, Alabama, offering a driving career you can feel good about. This position focuses on delivering flatbed freight, primarily solo within the Pelham area with occasional travel. The role is designed for drivers who want to be the "Captain" of their truck, making safety decisions while enjoying a schedule that is mostly Monday through Friday, with some Saturdays during peak times.

Drivers operate 36-month-or-newer day cab tractors with flatbed trailers.

The team includes a community of proud women and men in logistics, including Military Reservists and Veterans.
