Job Description

DELIVERY DRIVER

We are looking to add a friendly go-getter to our team! Join a small company with a big heart.

Detour Coffee was born in 2009 in a back alleyway in Dundas, Ontario. As one of Canada’s earliest specialty coffee roasters, the brand was built on the idea that coffee can be more than just morning fuel. Whether it’s sourcing, roasting, brewing, or tasting, coffee should be fun. While good coffee means something different to everyone, to us, it means friendly coffees that have the potential to transform a daily routine into moments to look forward to.

While Detour has grown to become one of Canada’s largest specialty coffee roasters, we continue to operate with the product and people first focus we have since the  beginning. We are excited to be hiring a Delivery Driver as we continue to grow.

Our Delivery Driver plays an important role in our company –  They will help in our mission to get high quality, freshly roasted coffee to our customers.
