NEW STARTING WAGES FOR DRIVERS!
Come join our team and help "Defend Potential" with Big Brothers Big Sisters Pick-up Services!
We value our team and our community so we use best practices, including social distancing, regular cleaning, weekly testing if not vaccinated, and we wear masks when working indoors or close to others to keep everyone safe during the COVID-19 pandemic. Interviews can be done via Zoom or in-person; your choice
Our drivers are courteous and professional individuals who help represent the best of our organization and foster a strong, positive experience for our donors. If you want a rewarding job that gets you out in the community, meeting people, and making a difference, we want to talk to you.
Drivers operate one of our box trucks to go to donor homes, businesses, and community partners to pick up and deliver donations of clothing and small household items. These donations are a critical part of the funding for Big Brothers Big Sisters of Alaska. The vast majority of our pickups are in Anchorage and the Mat-Su area, but we do occasionally need drivers to travel to all corners of Alaska's road system.
