  • Embed safety and compliance requirements into Operations SOPs, QRGs, and training programs
  • Partner with Training Operations to ensure training reflects real-world operational risks and expectations
  • Support new sites, customers, and operational expansions with safety and compliance readiness reviews
  • Leads cross-functional alignment across Operations, Safety, Legal, and People Operations through clear ownership, sound judgment, and operational credibility
  • Partner with Operations leadership to define and track safety and compliance metrics that support execution and scale
  • Own operational compliance tooling workflows in partnership with Ops Systems and Fleet teams

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of experience in operations, compliance, fleet management, or regulated operational environments
  • Prior experience owning safety or compliance execution in transportation, logistics, or industrial operations
  • Experience supporting audits, inspections, or regulatory reviews
  • Strong operational mindset with the ability to translate policy into executable processes
  • Experience working closely with frontline teams, drivers, and operational leaders
  • Comfortable operating in scaling, fast-changing operational environments
  • Working knowledge of FMCSA and DOT regulations applicable to commercial operations
  • Familiarity with driver compliance, vehicle compliance, and incident response workflows
  • Execution-focused leader who drives accountability through clarity and follow-through
  • Trusted operator who balances safety, compliance, and operational realities
  • Builds structure and consistency without adding unnecessary friction
