Company: Road & Rail Services
Starting Pay: $20.00 per hour
Employment Type: Full-Time
Work Schedule: Wednesday–Sunday, 8:30 a.m.–5:00 p.m.
Work Location: On-site, primarily outdoors - Ellwood, IL
Training: Paid training provided; vehicle-inspection experience is not required

Road & Rail Services is looking for an observant and reliable Vehicle Damage Inspector to join our team in Ellwood, IL. This entry-level position plays an important role in the vehicle-processing operation by identifying transportation-related damage and ensuring inspection results are reported correctly.

You do not need previous automotive inspection experience to qualify. We will train you on vehicle-inspection techniques, damage classifications, customer requirements, and the electronic systems used to submit reports.

This is not an automotive repair or mechanic position. Your work will focus on carefully examining vehicles, confirming reported damage, entering accurate information, and communicating concerns to the appropriate team members.

In this role, you will:

Conduct detailed exterior inspections of vehicles for transportation-related damage

Review and confirm damage previously identified on vehicles

Complete inspections both on the ground and while vehicles are positioned on railcars

Accurately record findings according to established customer procedures

Submit vehicle-damage documentation through manufacturer reporting websites

Enter applicable inspection information into the BNSF reporting system

Notify the appropriate personnel when damage or documentation issues are identified

Assist with monitoring access to designated areas while vehicle repairs are pending

Follow company, customer, and industry safety requirements

Complete other related operational assignments as needed

Accurate documentation is a key part of this position. The information you enter helps customers make informed decisions and maintain reliable vehicle-processing records.

Successful candidates must have:

A valid driver's license

Basic proficiency with Microsoft Office

Strong attention to detail and data-entry accuracy

The ability to understand and follow written procedures

Reliable attendance and punctuality

Availability to work Wednesday through Sunday

The ability to work safely without constant supervision

A willingness to collaborate with coworkers when needed

Comfort working around vehicles, railcars, and active equipment

• The ability to safely access railcars and perform outdoor inspections

Experience in quality control, transportation, automotive operations, logistics, or data entry is beneficial but not required.

Most duties are performed outside at an active rail and vehicle-processing facility. Team members must be prepared for changing conditions, including heat, cold, wind, rain, and seasonal weather.

This position also requires working safely around moving vehicles and rail equipment. All required personal protective equipment must be worn according to site procedures.

Road & Rail Services offers $20.00 per hour and a competitive benefits package that includes:

Medical and dental coverage

401(k) retirement plan with company matching

Paid vacation and company holidays

Annual steel-toe footwear allowance

Company-provided personal protective equipment

Job-specific training

Opportunities for internal career advancement

We are proud to be a veteran-friendly employer and believe hardworking, dependable employees should have opportunities to grow within the organization.

Since 1987, Road & Rail Services has supported transportation and rail operations across North America. Our employees provide vehicle-processing, terminal, plant, inspection, and field-maintenance services for railroads, shippers, and rail-equipment owners.

If you are dependable, computer-capable, and comfortable working outdoors, apply today to begin your career as a Quality Inspector with Road & Rail Services.
