Job description

Description

Join the SkyHop Global team as our Leader on Duty for the fantastic TPA location!

Picture this:

You'll be at the helm, steering a group of drivers towards excellence while making the most of the best cost options to boost profitability and create unforgettable customer experiences. Not only will you enjoy a comprehensive benefits package including health, dental, vision, 401(k) with a company match, PTO, and more, but you'll also have the opportunity to be in the field, exploring and ensuring the smooth flow of operations 25-50% of your scheduled time (because who wants to be stuck behind a desk all day, right?).

Your mission, should you choose to accept it:

• Direct and inspire your team of drivers with leadership that focuses on process improvement, team-building, coaching, and feedback.
• Keep overtime to a minimum, except for those rare emergency situations.
• Assist the Station Manager by being a recruitment wizard - interviewing, selecting, training, motivating, coaching, and mentoring transport drivers to be the best in the business.
• Oversee the daily maintenance review of our fleet, ensuring everything runs like a well-oiled machine and reporting concerns promptly.
• Be the safety superhero, conducting regular safety audits, leading station safety meetings, and meeting with individual staff members to ensure a secure and thriving work environment.

But wait, there's more:

• Help the Station Manager manage local permits and vehicle registrations – because we all know paperwork can't be ignored!
• Maintain stellar relationships with airport ground transportation and attend meetings as required – networking game strong!
• Ensure you've got a clean driving record, a valid driver's license, and the ability to lift up to 75 pounds – Crew bags won't lift themselves!
• Be at least 21 years old (per DOT requirements) and pass a pre-employment drug screen and physical – safety first!
• Get yourself a Non-CDL DOT Medical Card, because, well, it's part of the job.

And the perks:

Full-time position with a competitive salary of $20.00 per hour.

• Enjoy benefits like a 401(k), dental insurance, flexible schedule, health insurance, life insurance, paid time off, referral program, and vision insurance.
• Embrace variety with day shifts, evening shifts, holidays, night shifts, on-call responsibilities, and weekends as needed – because life is an adventure!
• Don't miss the chance to be part of one of the fastest-growing companies - apply now and let's soar to new heights together!

SkyHop Global is not just a workplace; it's a journey!
