- Incident & Accident Management: Lead root-cause investigations for all accidents, injuries, and near-misses, file required DOT reports, implement corrective action plans, and manage insurance claims.
- Safety Training & Communication: Conduct ongoing safety meetings, develop training modules tailored to heavy haul operations (e.g., proper cargo securement, tie-down ratings, bridge laws, and route surveys),



and keep the team updated on regulatory changes.
- Equipment & Maintenance Oversight: Coordinate with the maintenance department to ensure all heavy haul tractors and trailers meet rigorous safety and inspection standards before dispatch.
- Safety Metrics Tracking: Maintain CSA (Compliance, Safety, Accountability) scores, monitor BASICs, and develop strategies to continuously improve our safety standing.

Qualifications & Requirements

- Industry Experience: Minimum of 3–5 years of safety, compliance, or dispatch-support management experience within the US trucking industry, with specific familiarity in heavy haul, specialized flatbed, or oversized freight operations.
- Regulatory Expertise: Deep, working knowledge of Federal Motor Carrier Safety Administration (FMCSA) regulations, DOT compliance, Hours of Service (HOS) rules, and state-level permitting requirements for oversized loads.

Must be capable of clearly articulating complex US regulatory guidelines, conducting remote safety meetings, and interacting professionally with US-based drivers, executive management, and external stakeholders.




- Remote Operations Proficiency: Proven experience working in a remote or outsourced environment, with a strong ability to independently manage digital workflows, audit electronic logs across time zones, and communicate effectively via virtual channels.
