Driving with Numode Delivery
The best part of driving for a local courier company is the freedom that you experience. Every day is different from the one before. You get to work outside, interact with various people, and get some exercise as you are constantly walking and getting in and out of your vehicle.
Experiences of Our Drivers
“This is the best job in the world and I cannot imagine doing any other job.”
Bill Behar has been a Numode driver since 2019. Prior to joining Numode, Bill drove a 5-ton truck but found Vancouver traffic increasingly difficult to manage. “When I decided to switch from driving trucks to smaller vehicles, I wanted to find a good company to work for,” says Bill. After reading an article in the Richmond News about Numode Delivery being awarded Best New Business by the Richmond Chamber of Commerce, he applied the next day — and the rest is history. “The team at Numode is just so pleasant to work with.”
Bill was also impressed with the training he received: for the first few days, he was partnered with an experienced driver. The first and most important rule was that public safety comes above all else. “The safety of the public and our drivers is really important to us,” says Vanessa Cowan, Office Manager at Numode. “As soon as I met Bill, I knew he would be a perfect fit with our team.”
Bill has always enjoyed the interaction with customers and the public. Finding a company that shared his core values was important to him. “You could tell right away that Numode’s customers appreciated the work and effort that their drivers put into delivering their packages.”
In his second week at Numode, Bill was asked to deliver to Sechelt and Gibsons. His first stop was delivering a pharmacy prescription to a senior at her home in Sechelt. The customer had placed the order the previous afternoon and was not expecting it until the next day. “She was so happy to see me,” says Bill. The rest of the day was much the same — knowing that Numode’s customers were happy was important to him. “It just shows you the quality of our company.”
Numode has an open-door policy with management and ownership. “I received a call from Andrew about two weeks after I started, asking how things were and if I needed anything,” says Bill. The next time he was in the office, he was showing pictures of his grandchildren. The fact that management has created an environment that encourages a healthy work-life balance is important to him. Spending time with his kids and grandchildren is something he looks forward to every day. “Knowing that management cares and understands this is awesome,” says Bill. “I only wish I had started earlier at Numode.”
