About The Position

Our ideal candidates will have a successful track record working for an asset-based carrier with experience in Load Planning, Dispatch, and Customer Service. We are targeting to hire based out of our offices located in Dubuque, IA, Ft Worth, TX, Sapulpa OK, and S. Jordan UT. For those with significant experience who are located outside of those office locations we will consider remote work locations, which will include the need to travel for training. We are currently not considering individuals located in California, New York, Colorado, Connecticut, Maryland, Washington, or Massachusetts. 🚨 Ready to Take the Wheel of High-Speed Logistics? Join Us as an Expedited Operations Specialist! 🚨 Do you thrive under pressure? Love solving problems in real-time? Want a front-row seat in the fast lane of freight logistics? We’re looking for a driven, agile, and fiercely organized Expedited Operations Specialist to take command of high-priority, time-sensitive freight across our expedited lanes. This isn’t your average desk job—this is logistics at full throttle. You’ll manage a dynamic board of professional drivers, navigate urgent disruptions, and make critical, on-the-fly decisions that keep freight moving and clients happy. Think of yourself as part strategist, part air traffic controller, and part firefighter—all rolled into one essential role. Schedule: Rolling schedule of either 4x4, 7x7 or 2x2x3 - all 12 hours shifts.

Comfortable wearing many hats—planner, dispatcher, crisis manager, and more.
Obsessed with operational excellence and not afraid to own your decisions.
A clear communicator who thrives in fast-paced, high-stakes environments.

Responsibilities

Command your own driver board, managing freight from planning through execution.
React in real time—solve breakdowns, reroute canceled loads, and keep the supply chain flowing.
Plan and coordinate multi-driver relay routes across long-haul lanes like a chess master on a clock.
Own the operation: You’re in charge of dispatching, planning, performance monitoring, and contingency response.
Communicate constantly with drivers and teams to maintain freight integrity and hit delivery deadlines.
Make smart decisions under pressure—every second counts.

Full benefits package: medical, dental, vision, company-paid disability and life insurance.
120 hours of PTO starting Day One—yep, you read that right.
Work from home perks: Earn up to 160 hours of remote flexibility after just 6 months.
