CDL Driver, Local, M-F, Day Shift
Pay rate and level will depend on the successful candidate’s qualifications, prior experience, and location.
About the role
As a CDL Driver, start your day with purpose and end it knowing you helped build something that matters. You’ll be behind the wheel of our 3+ ton truck, transporting oversized and overweight loads with safety, efficiency, and a customer-first mindset. You’ll interact with customers regularly, becoming a trusted face they rely on. Your attention to detail and commitment to safety ensures every unit is delivered in top condition.
This isn’t your average driving job—no two days are the same! Some days you’ll be on the road, others you’ll be outside the truck handling set-ups, teardowns, or installing value-added features. It’s a physical, hands-on role that’s perfect if you enjoy variety and have a knack for tools, construction, or problem-solving.
McGrath delivers modular solutions that help businesses, schools, and communities solve tough space and infrastructure challenges with speed and confidence. Through flexible, ready-to-deploy buildings, storage, and specialized equipment, we enable our customers to operate smarter, scale faster, and achieve lasting results. As a dedicated company CDL Driver, you’ll transport modular units using safe, reliable, well-maintained equipment—then play a hands-on role in bringing those spaces to life. Our CDL Drivers deliver and set up structures communities depend on every day, from classrooms and healthcare facilities to construction job sites and more.
