EXPERIENCED and carefully selected
If your business is working with dedicated freight and/or pre-booked and pre-planned loads, a driver manager or dispatcher might be a good solution for
you. Typically an individual that has highly developed communication and people skills with preferably previous experience in afterhours dispatching would be
the perfect fit for this job. The job duties would start from imputing the specific load data in to your TMS, to verifying the accurate mileage, hours of service and pay
for the drivers and send all the required information to the drivers via your preferred communication methods
(SMS, email or your ELD or TMS messaging system) He/she would be responsible to monitor his/her drivers
and ensure the home times requests are fulfilled, as well that the company’s requirements are met. The
driver manager will work together with the load planner to ensure the company’s goals are being delivered. Typically the load planner is a person within your
company that will plan the loads for your fleet and the driver manager will have to execute the plan together
with his drivers. This position is a set salary based plus bonuses to incentivize some type of outcome you
desire. This position can be custom tailored for your company’s needs and each employee can be trained to
perform whatever tasks your company requires. The salaries will be negotiated for each individual employee separately based on that individual’s qualifications.
