ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. -- By doing a simple, quick search on Indeed.com with the keyword "driver" and "Albuquerque" as the city, you can find hundreds of job opportunties for drivers. Just a few are listed below:


1) Delivery Driver for Lowe's

2) Driver for Hertz

3) Driver for Exel

4) Bus Driver for UNM

5) Class A/Touch Freight Driver for Penske

6) Deliver Driver for U.S. Foodservice

7) City Driver for FedEx

8) In-town Driver Merchandiser for Coca-Cola

9) Medical Gas Driver for Airgas, Inc.

10) Valet Driver for Hyatt


Having the responsibility of driving with either human beings (very precious cargo!) or chemicals or food or a variety of other possibilities, one can only assume the first prerequisite to obtaining a job as a driver would be a valid driver's license. Another reasonable assumption would be a clean driving record.


Some of the above listed positions require special commercial driver's licenses (CDL) or Class A or Class B license. Other requirements might also include having a clean bill of health, being able to lift certain amounts of weight, or even having a HazMat certificate of training.

If you believe you are a great driver, check out some of the many job openings in Albuquerque. The pay scale can vary from company to company but is quite reasonable for most. Since 2009, the transportation industry has reported a 67% increase in job postings, as announced by Indeed.com, with three of the top four transportation job searches including the term "driver." Maybe it's time to hit the road?
