CompostNow is looking for an energetic self-starter to take on a specialty role within our newest market, Cincinnati. This hybrid position includes both onsite operations and sprinter driver duties. If you are a big-picture thinker, enjoy cross-training, and believe that variety is the spice of life - this position may be for you!
This role is open to both full time and part time schedules (full time team members qualify for health coverage, time off, and other benefits after successfully completing a 90 Day introductory period).
Position Responsibilities
Safe operation of Sprinter Van while navigating collection routes
Collection of 4 gallon containers filled with food scraps, and simultaneous delivery of a clean, empty container
Doorstep service of single and multi-family residential locations
High intensity pace and motion
Emptying containers filled with food scraps
Sorting through containers to remove contamination (i.e. anything that can’t be composted)
Thoroughly clean all containers (i.e. washing, soaping, rinsing), readying them to be returned to our members
Preparing finished compost (soil) for delivery back to members
Cleaning work vehicles (interior and exterior) when needed
Maintaining a neat and tidy work environment for storage of operations materials
Company Overview
Perhaps we do something a bit different (collecting discarded food scraps) when compared to other companies. But, the job itself is not unique. In fact, the job is the same function - picking stuff up and dropping stuff off - as any other delivery driver position you might find.
People work at CompostNow because we give people the benefit of the doubt, we strive for operational excellence, and we treat people as adults. We hold high expectations of ourselves and one another. We choose to grind through with the right people rather than have it easier with people who don’t share the same standards.
A quote from one of our Sprinter drivers on what the job is like day-to-day: "After my first few training shifts, I felt like I had a solid idea of what was expected of me and what I could expect to see out on route each day. Honestly the consistency of that has been great. There really aren't that many wild card factors in my day to day experience. Some days can be draining, but time moves quickly and I get to be outside for a good bit of it. Obviously that is less than ideal some days, but overall it's worth it. I've gotten to see some really amazing sunrises. I've got my routine going steady now. I drink my coffee and listen to my radio stations while I get ready for my route each morning, and I'm having a good time!"
This position may be a great fit if you enjoy getting up and at ‘em to start your day, if you already have an active lifestyle and value putting physical activity into your daily routine (get paid to workout instead of paying for a gym membership… what’s not to like?), and if you enjoy challenging yourself to be better and more efficient with how you work (internally driven competition).
Pay starts at $20/hr, and exceptional performers are eligible for a 5% raise after 1-year.
