Job Description

 

Lead. Build Relationships. Drive Results.

 

Warren Transport is looking for a Fleet Manager to join our operations team and take ownership of an assigned fleet of independent contractors.

This is a people-focused, fast-paced role where you'll build relationships with drivers, solve problems, coordinate loads, and help your fleet succeed. If you’re competitive, organized, a strong communicator, and enjoy having a direct impact on results, this could be the opportunity for you.

 

What You'll Do

  • Manage and coach a fleet of drivers with a focus on safety, service, retention, and profitability
  • Build strong relationships with contractors and become their go-to resource
  • Own each load from dispatch through delivery
  • Communicate load expectations, changes, and customer requirements
  • Work with Load Planning to identify and sell load opportunities to drivers
  • Monitor key performance metrics including on-time delivery, miles, revenue, safety, and turnover
  • Help drivers navigate permits, service issues, tickets, border crossings, and other challenges
  • Address DOT and safety-related issues and ensure compliance requirements are met
  • Advocate for drivers while partnering with internal teams to resolve issues
  • Demonstrate and promote Warren's Safety First culture
  • Identify opportunities for improvement and take action when performance isn't meeting expectations

 

What We're Looking For

You don't have to have a trucking background to be successful. We're looking for someone who can build trust, solve problems, communicate clearly, and take ownership.

You'll bring:

  • Strong verbal and written communication skills
  • Excellent problem-solving and critical-thinking skills
  • The ability to negotiate and influence
  • Strong organization and follow-through
  • A goal-oriented, motivated mindset
  • The ability to build rapport quickly
  • Basic math and geography skills
  • Proficiency with Microsoft Office, Word, and Excel

A four-year degree or equivalent work experience is preferred.

 

Why Warren?

This is more than a desk job. You'll have a direct impact on driver relationships, fleet performance, safety, and the overall success of the operation.

If you're ready to take ownership, build relationships, and drive results, apply today.
