Motas is hiring full-time Secure Transport Drivers to transport cannabis products, payments, and related documents between licensed marijuana facilities throughout Michigan.

Drivers will operate 26’ box trucks, cargo vans, smaller box trucks, or other company vehicles depending on route needs, vehicle availability, and business volume.
