A growing transportation organization is seeking a VP of Transportation to lead hands-on transportation operations while also driving business development and expanding the company's presence throughout the Green Bay market.

This is an ideal opportunity for a transportation leader who enjoys being involved in the business-not someone who wants to sit behind a desk and manage from a distance. The VP will build and maintain strong relationships with carriers, customers, shippers, and area businesses while overseeing day-to-day transportation operations and identifying opportunities for growth.

What You'll Do

Provide hands-on leadership and oversight of transportation operations.
Develop and maintain strong relationships with carriers, customers, and transportation partners.
Build relationships with local and regional businesses to identify new business opportunities.

Work closely with operations to ensure freight is moved safely, efficiently, and profitably.
Help develop carrier capacity and strengthen the company's carrier network.
Monitor service levels, operational performance, costs, and overall profitability.
Identify opportunities to improve processes, efficiency, and customer service.
Work closely with leadership on business development and growth strategies.
Represent the company professionally within the Green Bay transportation and business community.
Lead, coach, and support operations personnel as needed.
Be willing to roll up your sleeves and get involved in the day-to-day business.

What We're Looking For

Proven leadership experience within the transportation/logistics industry.
Strong understanding of transportation operations and carrier relationships.
Demonstrated ability to develop business and build long-term customer relationships.
Existing relationships within the transportation or local business community are highly valued.
Strong understanding of freight, capacity, pricing, service, and operational requirements.
Excellent communication, relationship-building, and negotiation skills.
Entrepreneurial mindset with the ability to identify and pursue new opportunities.
Hands-on leadership style and willingness to work alongside the operations team.
Strong business judgment with a focus on both customer service and profitability.

Compensation

$120,000 - $135,000 base salary + bonus, depending on experience and qualifications.

This is an opportunity to take a significant leadership role with a transportation organization where your operational expertise, industry relationships, and ability to develop business will directly contribute to growth.
