The most excellent Receiving Associatetakes Healthy Living core culture and uses it to take the best care of our drivers, making sure they are HAPPY!

• Be just as passionate about hospitality as the nuts and bolts of this job
• Log every driver into daily receiving log

Healthy Living's Essential Behaviors
Make Someone's Day
You're here because you're a true 51%er and we want you to bring genuine enthusiasm to work daily. You get that warm, fuzzy, tingly-from-head-to-toe feeling when helping others - staff and guests! You see getting to "yes" as a super-fun challenge! You readily and freely interact with every guest. There's nothing you like more than seeing guests leave happier than when they arrived. When your teammates are having a tough day, you use positive energy to bring them up. When you smile, everyone smiles.
Move fast and be thorough
You work with a purposeful sense of urgency. You will be trained to achieve excellence in your job to complete tasks quickly, efficiently, and with great skill, and at the same time remembering to look up and connect with each guest. You LOVE getting the job done and doing it well.
Create a team people want to stay on
Your genuine, positive energy contributes to an upbeat, effective team where you and your co-workers thrive and express a desire to stay and to grow together. You treat your teammates with respect and kindness every single day. You offer empathy and an open ear. You bring special skills to the team that are respected by your teammates and in turn you see the value in others' skills and talents.
Show Up
You show up to work. You are fully present for your teammates, our guests, and our trade partners. You're a reliable, invested member of the team. You bring authentic, positive energy to work every day. Deep down you care.
"What can I do?"
The words, "What can I do?" and "How can I help?" fly out of your mouth because you recognize that the collective goal of the team and the store is bigger than the task at hand. You anticipate the needs of your coworkers and the guests and are proactive in helping others.
Come with a solution
You have a keen eye for identifying pain points in our systems, but you always come to the table with a solution to offer. You think outside the box, you're creative in solving problems, and you adapt to change with grace. You always speak up and let us know what you need!
Own it
You hold yourself accountable and you're accountable to your teammates. When there is an issue, ask yourself, "What can I do to help fix it?" When there is success, you and your team celebrate! The details matter, and you are attentive to all of them.
Seek knowledge
At Heathy Living we love learning and are naturally curious. We love feedback; it is an opportunity to improve ourselves. You reflect deeply on feedback by frequently looking inward and evaluating your own performance at HL. You are personally fulfilled by helping others grow and love taking on new challenges and new opportunities to learn.
If all of this sounds like you, please apply for a position today and begin your career with our mission, vision, and values driven company.
