About the role
We are hiring a US Fleet Operations Lead Dispatcher to own and scale a portfolio of 15–30 independent (1099) drivers.
This is a high-performance role for someone who wants real ownership, direct impact on revenue, and the opportunity to grow within a fast-scaling freight and technology operation.
You will operate at the intersection of dispatch, operations, and financial performance — with full accountability for outcomes.
Driver Portfolio Ownership (P&L Responsibility)
Own the full operational and financial performance of a dedicated portfolio of 15–30 drivers.
Each truck and driver is a revenue-generating unit, and you are responsible for maximizing its output.
You will:

- Optimize revenue per truck while actively managing costs (fuel, deadhead, maintenance, downtime, etc.)
- Make real-time decisions that directly impact profitability and utilization
- Act as the primary operator and escalation point for your drivers
- Maintain strong driver relationships while driving consistent execution
- Balance short-term performance with long-term retention and stability
Dispatch & Operations
- Manage and execute loads in real time, ensuring on-time pickup and delivery
- Plan routes using HOS to maximize productive miles
- Communicate clearly and proactively with Driver Customers and Broker Partners
- Anticipate and resolve issues (delays, detention, rejections, disruptions)
- Ensure accurate, timely documentation (BOLs, PODs, check calls)
Operational & Financial Performance
- Optimize RPM and overall load profitability
- Evaluate every load through a cost vs. revenue lens
- Reduce deadhead and increase paid miles
- Monitor fuel usage and drive efficiency
- Ensure clean documentation for timely billing
Efficiency & Continuous Improvement
- Leverage TMS and Billor technology to improve execution
- Identify and close performance gaps
- Reduce deductions through better planning and discipline
- Continuously refine how the portfolio is managed and scaled
Driver & Asset Management
- Manage drivers across varying experience levels
- Balance home time with operational performance
- Coordinate maintenance to minimize downtime
- Support drivers through breakdowns and critical situations
- Address performance issues quickly and directly
Reporting Structure
- First 30–90 days: Reports directly to Head of Freight (US)
- Long term: Integrated into a hybrid structure with international support in Brazil
This role also serves as a key operator and SME, helping elevate dispatch standards across the organization.
Compensation
- Base salary + performance-driven commission (paid monthly)
- Commission tied to gross revenue and key KPIs
- Significant upside as portfolio size and efficiency increase
- 3+ years of flatbed, step-deck, or specialized freight dispatching experience.
- Proven success managing and retaining independent (1099) drivers or owner-operators.
- Deep understanding of profitability metrics, including RPM, deadhead, and cost optimization.
- Solid knowledge of DOT Hours of Service (HOS) and flatbed securement regulations.
- Proficiency with modern TMS, ELD platforms, and proprietary technology.
- Strong negotiation skills and the ability to solve real-time breakdowns calmly.
Preferred:
- Experience collaborating daily with international or remote support teams (specifically in Brazil).
