• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
• Strong organization, documentation, and follow-through.
• Ability to work in a performance-driven environment with measurable recruiting and activation expectations. Will consider remote work schedule.

• Experience recruiting for intermodal or drayage transportation.
• Experience recruiting Owner Operators or Independent Contractors.
• Familiarity with ports, rail ramps, TWIC requirements, UIIA requirements, or other intermodal operating requirements.
