  • Promote a safety-first culture across all terminal activities.
  • Track operational KPIs to identify areas for improvement in productivity, service levels, utilization, and profitability.
  • Manage employee performance, accountability, scheduling, and ongoing training initiatives.
  • Support driver and owner-operator retention through clear communication and operational support.
  • Collaborate with senior leadership on strategy execution and continuous operational improvement.
  • Facilitate accurate, timely communication among operations, clients, drivers, and management.

  • Ability to manage multiple priorities and make quick, effective decisions in a fast-paced environment.
  • Strong leadership skills, with excellent communication and problem-solving capabilities.
  • Ability to hold teams accountable while fostering a positive work atmosphere.
  • Comprehensive knowledge of DOT regulations and transportation safety standards.
  • Comfort working directly with drivers, owner-operators, customers, and operational staff.
