Ice Cream Truck Driver

As an ice cream truck driver:

• You’ll drive our ice cream truck around Central Maryland! You’ll visit neighborhoods, events, and more to hand out free ice cream to people.

• You’ll keep the ice cream truck looking great. Our ice cream truck is super cute, and a lot of people will love it! But to keep it looking good takes some work. You’ll wash the truck, sweep the inside, and generally keep things tidy.

• You’ll make sure we don’t run out of ice cream! To keep putting smiles on people’s faces, we need to have enough ice cream. Sometimes you may need to run to the store to stock up on ice cream before an event.

• You’ll work some evenings and some weekends. There are some events in our service area we want to make sure to visit with the ice cream truck, and events tend to be in the evenings or weekends. You’re flexible and ready for a good time either way!

Responsibilities

Some Highlights of the Job

• You’ll be loved by a lot of people in the community!

• Make $20-25/hour

• Working April – Sept (4–7-hour shifts)

• Availability on weekends is necessary!

All About YOU

• You’re a self-starter who’s motivated by achievements. You’ve got great work ethic and always strive to make things happen!

• You’ve never met a stranger. You’re comfortable talking to anyone, but you also know when it’s time to wrap up a conversation and get to work.

• You’re patient (and like kids!). When you drive an ice cream truck, it’s naturally going to attract a lot of kids! You’re comfortable with the chaos of a bunch of kids trying to pick what kind of ice cream they want. Sometimes, you’ll meet a kid that’s just not in a good mood, but you don’t let that get to you! You know how to keep your cool and work to make people smile.

• You’re a strategic thinker. You don’t want to drive the ice cream truck to random places, you want to visit places that are going to make the biggest impact! You’re able to think of good places to go, but you can also make the call when a stop ends up being a flop and you need to maximize your time somewhere else.

• Efficiency is important to you. The ice cream truck will be popular! Sometimes, we could end up with a long line of people wanting free ice cream (can you blame them?). You can manage the crowd well and get a lot of people their treats quickly.

• You’ve got a clean driving record. Your friends might even joke you’re “too safe” when you drive (we don’t believe there’s any such thing!). Part of the interview process for this job includes a driving test, but that doesn’t worry you!

• You love summer weather! Summers in Maryland can get really hot, and our ice cream truck is no exception. You love sunshine and summer weather and would rather be hot than cold any day!
