  • Maintain strong carrier relationships by conducting regular performance reviews and sharing relevant updates on industry regulations, equipment, and company expectations.
  • Resolve carrier service issues promptly, ensuring all parties are involved in the resolution process and standards are upheld.
  • Promote collaboration among carriers to drive consistent performance and improve operational efficiency.

What You Offer Us:

  • Minimum of 5-10 years of prior job experience required.
  • Proven ability to build strong vendor relationships, leading with confidence and a passion for achieving expectational results aligned with business goals.
  • Strong organizational and administrative skills, with the ability to multi-task, solve problems efficiently, and consistently meet deadlines in a dynamic environment.
  • Deep expertise in transportation regulations, including DOT/FMCSA, USDA, and TQA, ensuring full regulatory compliance and operational integrity.
  • A strategic mindset and hands-on experience as a transportation operations expert, with a focus on enhancing capacity, reducing costs, and improving maintenance efficiency across the fleet.

What We Offer You:
  • We offer a comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, a flexible spending account (FSA), life insurance, short-term disability, long-term disability, a 401(k) plan, paid holidays, paid time off bank, an employee assistance program (EAP), and more.
  • Be an active part of an organization that gives back to the community in many ways - including feed programs that support local farms, food shelf programs, food support for veterans, agriculture education and promotion, FFA/4H support, charitable contributions, etc.
  • A company that has a passionate purpose for food safety, animal welfare, and for living its core values every day - respect, integrity, excellence, adaptability, and innovation.
  • A culture that fosters employee growth, promotion from within, and a highly team-oriented workplace environment.
  • The targeted base pay range for this role is $100,000 to $130,000 with this range reflecting differences in candidate knowledge, skills, and experience.
