Amazon Jobs in Sioux Falls, SD

Job Description

Deliver the world to Sioux Falls. Starting at $21.50 per hour + benefits + bonus.

We are proud to offer an industry-leading base wage of $21.50 per hour for all drivers, along with generous benefits, and a bonus program to reward high performers.

Falls Delivery, LLC, (https://falls.delivery/) is a veteran-owned Amazon Delivery Service Partner. We are hiring motivated individuals to deliver Amazon packages in and around Sioux Falls.

This is a regular (W-2) employee position delivering Amazon packages while driving a company vehicle (a cargo van like a Ford Transit or a RAM ProMaster), using a company mobile device, and wearing a company-provided branded uniform.

Approximate working hours are 9am to 7pm (up to 10 hours per day). Full time is typically 4 days per week, on weekdays and weekends. Part time is 1 or 2 days per week. Employees usually work the same days every week, with a consistent and predictable schedule.

Extra time (5th and 6th day) opportunities are available for high-performers.

This is a very physically demanding / athletic job. Our routes are dense, and require lots of walking (and relatively little driving). A typical route involves making 200-225 stops, and delivering 300-325 packages, at a pace of 25-30 deliveries per hour (10 deliveries every 20 minutes). You must also be physically capable of lifting and carrying 50 pounds, and of entering and exiting a delivery vehicle 125+ times in a day. If you’re not into athleticism, physical fitness, healthy eating, and getting adequate sleep, then this job is not for you.

As a Delivery Associate, you will be the face of our company. It will be your job to consistently exceed customer expectations by making sure all orders are delivered with a smile, on time, safely, and to the right location.

This is not a job with Amazon. Amazon is a global mega-corporation with tons of bureaucracy. Falls Delivery is a local business where positive attitude, teamwork, and commitment to getting the job done matters most. The owner’s name is Zack. You will have his cell phone number and see him often.
