Drivers are expected to follow UPS safe and defensive driving protocols at all times, adhere to company appearance standards, and maintain accurate records of all deliveries. You’ll also be expected to work collaboratively with your team when loading and unloading trucks, contributing to a smooth and efficient operation out of the 8825 Campeau Drive facility in Kanata.

Benefits and Salary
