Job description

Your Business. Your Rules. Our Platform. The freight agency model is broken. It's built on opaque fees, clunky tech, and partners who act like your boss. We're here to fix it.
For decades, running your own freight business meant fighting for transparency. It meant using old-guard tech, chasing payments, and always wondering if your "partner" was about to poach your customers.
That era is over.
CloudTrucks exists to empower the independent entrepreneur.
We built our reputation by providing a complete "Business in a Box" for thousands of logistics professionals. Now, we are bringing that same disruptive power to freight agents. We provide the infrastructure-the capital, the technology, and the back-office muscle-so you can run your business faster, smarter, and more profitably.
The Platform: Your Business, Streamlined
This isn't just a TMS. It's your complete operating system, designed to eliminate friction. All our partners get access to our full, premium TMS suite, supercharged with best-in-class integrations.
  • Radical Transparency: No more "shadow" accounting. A powerful agent portal shows you your exact commissions on every load, in real-time.
  • Instant Carrier Compliance: Full TMS integration. Stop waiting on carrier packets. Onboard new carriers with tech enabled vetting in seconds.
  • Total Load Visibility: Industry-leading visibility is built into the TMS. Give your customers the automated, real-time tracking they expect.
  • Your Customer Portal: Empower your shippers with their own portal to track loads and pull documents, making you look like the tech-forward partner you are.

The Offer: Flexible Models Built for You
We don't believe in a "one-size-fits-all" approach. Whether you are a cradle-to-grave operator or a high-volume rainmaker, we have a model that fits your business with industry-competitive splits.
  • The Independent Operator Designed for the experienced agent who wants maximum control and maximum margin. You run your sales and operations; we provide the capital, the technology, and the back-office financial support.
  • The Fully-Supported Partner Designed for the sales-focused professional who wants to scale without hiring staff. You focus 100% on customer relationships, and our dedicated internal team handles the operations-booking, dispatching, and tracking your freight 24/7.

The Partnership: Built on Trust, Not Contracts
This is why we're different.
  • You Own Your Customers. Period. We are your partner, not your competitor. We will never solicit the customers you bring on. Our agreement is built on mutual trust, not restrictive non-competes.
  • Get Paid Fast & Consistently. We provide the capital to run your business. We pay carriers fast to protect your reputation, and we pay you on time, every time. No games.
  • We Handle 100% of the Risk. We manage all compliance, vetting, and insurance. When a claim happens, our team handles it. You keep selling.
  • Support That Actually Supports. Freight doesn't stop at 5 PM, and neither do we. You have a leadership team in your corner dedicated to your success. We are here to provide the strategic guidance and support you need to win with your customers whenever you need it.

This Is For You If...
  • You are an entrepreneur with an established, loyal book of business.
  • You prefer the unlimited earning potential of a 100% commission, 1099 contract position over the capped safety of a base salary.
  • You are tired of being treated like an employee.
  • You believe technology should make your life easier, not harder.
  • You are ready to run your business your way.

This is not for new brokers just starting out or those without existing customer relationships.
