In an intensely customer-focused organization such as ours, where we all know each other – including our Road Pilot® drivers and our talented, highly trained freight handlers – an important personality trait will be a passion to be more than the “sales manager.” You will need a strong desire to help modernize the unfavorable face of old-school “trucking.” Zip Xpress believes that transport can be much more than a necessary evil with a poor public reputation. We can be a strong business partner in the marketplace and help our customers with best-practice sustainability and high-quality service.
