Your Mission in Motion:

Regional Linehaul Performance Ownership

• Own regional performance across On-Time Departures (OTD), On-Time Arrivals (OTA), Left on Dock (LOD), lane reliability, and service impact lanes.
• Ensure adherence to standardized linehaul cut-off times and execution windows.
• Act as the regional escalation point for service disruptions, capacity constraints, and execution failures.

Cost & Capacity Management

• Manage regional linehaul spend, balancing service reliability with cost efficiency
• Optimize planned vs. actual load fill %, empty miles, ad-hoc lane usage, and lane cancellation rates
• Partner with Network Planning to align linehaul plans to volume forecasts and seasonal demand shifts
• Identify and execute cost-reduction opportunities without degrading service

Network Stability & Flow Control

• Ensure consistent lane execution across hubs, sort centers, and branches
• Monitor outbound dwell time, trailer turns, and yard congestion
• Lead corrective actions for recurring execution gaps (late departures, missed connections, volume rollovers)
• Support contingency planning for weather events, peak periods, and network disruptions

Vendor & Fleet Oversight

• Oversee linehaul carrier and vendor performance within the region
• Drive accountability through scorecards, audits, and regular performance reviews
• Ensure compliance with safety standards, load quality expectations, and contractual commitments
• Partner with Fleet Operations on tractor/trailer availability, utilization, and maintenance impacts

Load Quality & Risk Control

• Enforce regional standards for:

  • Securement and damage prevention
• Partner with Safety and Quality teams to reduce on-road incidents and service failures
• Ensure corrective actions are documented, tracked, and sustained

Leadership & Cross-Functional Collaboration

• Lead and develop Regional Linehaul Managers, planners, or execution teams as applicable
• Serve as the primary linehaul partner to:
  • Hub & Branch Operations
  • Network Planning & IE
  • Safety, Finance, and Fleet teams
• Champion a culture of integrity, discipline, accountability, and continuous improvement

Reporting, Metrics & Continuous Improvement

• Own regional linehaul dashboards and weekly business reviews

• Lead improvement initiatives using Lean / CI principles

Paving your way to your success:

• Experience in parcel, e-commerce, or high-volume distribution networks.
• Background in network planning, capacity modeling, or fleet operations.
• Lean / Continuous Improvement exposure (Kaizen, PDCA, root cause analysis).
• Experience supporting peak season planning and execution.

We expect you to operate with integrity and transparency, demonstrate disciplined execution and follow-through, take ownership of outcomes—not just activities, proactively identify risks and drive solutions, and build strong partnerships across Operations, Planning, and Support teams.
