Description

Shape Safety Culture from the Ground Up

Hill Bros Transportation is seeking a Driver Training Lead who believes that great drivers are made, not born. If you're passionate about safety, skilled at coaching without shaming, and want to make a real impact on driver performance and retention, this role is for you.

What You'll Do:

Lead our driver safety and training initiatives by conducting camera event coaching, training ride-alongs, new hire road tests, and hands-on safety coaching. You'll review telematics and dash camera events to identify high-risk behaviors, then work one-on-one with drivers to improve their skills and safety awareness. From pre-trip inspections and accident investigations to yard safety audits and cross-dock support, you'll be instrumental in reducing preventable accidents while building a stronger safety culture. This isn't about punishment-it's about development, mentoring, and helping drivers succeed.

Requirements

What We're Looking For:

MUST HAVE CURRENT CDL-A
3+ years of commercial driving experience - you understand what drivers face on the road
High school diploma or GED required
Strong understanding of FMCSA regulations and defensive driving principles
Excellent coaching and communication skills
Comfortable with telematics systems and camera footage review
Preferred: Smith System certification, Defensive Driving Instructor certification, OSHA training, or former Driver Trainer experience
Ability to work Tuesday-Saturday schedule with weekend operational support
Someone who can balance accountability with relationship-building

Why Hill Bros Transportation?

We live by our core values: Tradition, Give a Shit, We Not Me, Adaptable, Relentless, Spirit of Service, and Forward Thinking. As our Driver Training Lead, you'll work in an environment where safety isn't just a slogan-it's how we operate. We offer competitive compensation, comprehensive benefits, and the opportunity to make a measurable difference in driver safety and retention at a family-owned company that values both performance and people.

Ready to lead through coaching and development? Apply today and join a team where your expertise helps drivers succeed and keeps everyone safe on the road.
