Drive safely. Deliver quality. Keep projects moving at RK.

At RK Industries, the CDL Driver transports steel pipe, HVAC materials, equipment, and manufactured products to construction sites and other destinations. As part of Supply Chain Management, you will operate an assigned day-cab tractor on primarily local routes, take ownership of load securement, and work closely with dispatch to keep deliveries safe and on schedule. When you are not on the road, you will support shipping, receiving, and shop operations.

As a second-generation, family-owned company, RK brings together seven business units across construction, manufacturing, advanced fabrication, and building services. Our integrated approach, commitment to safety, and investment in employee development create opportunities to build a lasting career.
