Transportation Supervisor

About the Role

As a Transportation Supervisor in our Perris, California operation, you’ll combine driver management and customer success into one accountable seat. You’ll own live execution from the moment the approved plan is released through delivery and billing-ready closeout. Planning owns the capacity and network plan; you own the driver, the customer, the load, the equipment, every exception, and the next action.

You’ll be the person who keeps freight moving and customers informed. That means coaching drivers, staying ahead of late risk, recovering quickly when things break, and handing off a clean shift so nothing falls through the cracks. Success is measured by on-time pickup and delivery, proactive customer communication, driver safety and productivity, and accurate, billing-ready load closeout.

This is a full-time, hybrid overnight role in a 24/7 operation. You’ll work four 12-hour shifts, Friday through Monday, from 6:00 PM to 6:00 AM, with three days off each week. You’ll be in the office on Friday and Monday and work remotely on Saturday and Sunday. Coverage includes holidays that fall on your scheduled days. The salary for this role is $70,000 per year.

What You’ll Do

Driver Readiness and Performance

• Confirm driver attendance, start times, Hours of Service, tractor and trailer assignments, and dispatch acknowledgment before each run
• Monitor movement, dwell, relay readiness, and schedule adherence, and step in early when a load is at risk
• Coach drivers on safety, attendance, productivity, equipment care, and customer conduct
• Track coaching completion and work to reduce recurring issues across the driver team
• Contribute to driver retention by building trust and consistent day-to-day communication

Customer and Load Execution

• Monitor customer channels, tenders, instructions, loads, and appointments
• Keep future freight visible to Planning so capacity stays aligned with demand
• Send proactive, verified updates to customers on load status and any changes
• Own active loads through pickup, relay, delivery, POD, accessorial documentation, and portal completion
• Ensure every load closes out accurate and billing-ready

Exception and Recovery Ownership

• Act as incident owner for late risk, callouts, HOS conflicts, breakdowns, rejected loads, OS&D, appointment changes, and missing equipment
• Carry each exception through to resolution or an explicit handoff
• Execute recovery steps within the operating playbook
• Make time-critical adjustments overnight within your delegated authority
• Escalate material safety, customer, financial, capacity, or relay-plan risk quickly

Systems, Equipment, and Shift Control

• Maintain Apollo, our TMS, as the source of truth for load and milestone data
• Use Samsara and direct driver contact to verify HOS, location, equipment, and milestones
• Manage customer portals, Front, trailer visibility, and equipment defect escalation
• Handle load closeout end to end, since this role carries operations support responsibilities
• Complete an actionable shift handoff covering each open exception, customer impact, action taken, next step, owner, and deadline

What You’ll Bring to the Table

• 2 or more years in driver management, fleet operations, dispatch, customer operations, dedicated transportation, brokerage, or a related asset-based environment
• Working knowledge of DOT and FMCSA requirements, Hours of Service, ELDs, equipment inspections, and safe dispatch practices
• Ability to manage drivers and customer commitments at the same time while staying calm, factual, decisive, and safety-first under pressure
• Experience with TMS and ELD or telematics tools, customer portals, and POD and accessorial workflows
• Strong follow-through, structured handoffs, and a track record of coaching others
• High school diploma or GED

Desired Experience

• Experience supporting a 24/7 transportation operation on overnight or weekend shifts
• Hands-on experience with Samsara, Front, or similar telematics and shared inbox tools
• Background with relay or team-based freight networks
• Experience in electric vehicle fleets or zero-emissions transportation
• Familiarity with OS&D handling and claims documentation
