About GH Logistics

GH Logistics is an asset-based logistics company scaling national freight and government-contracted transportation lanes. We pride ourselves on disciplined execution and clear facility coordination across our drop trailer and team-expedite network. This role is critical to maintaining shift-level accountability, driver engagement, and physical trailer movement in real-time.

Position Overview

We are hiring a Route Supervisor for our Memphis, TN location from Wednesday- Sunday: 11PM - 9AM). You will oversee all overnight departures, manage yard and dock activity, and ensure compliance with safety and security standards. This position requires hands-on involvement with trailers, drivers, and facility staff, as well as structured reporting to GH Logistics leadership.

You must be calm under pressure, detail-oriented, and consistent in holding drivers and facility operations accountable for on-time performance.

Core Responsibilities

  • Supervise all route departures and confirm compliance with scheduled departure times.
  • Maintain on-site safety standards across yard, dock, and trailer operations.
  • Conduct physical trailer checks and ensure all trailers are sealed and latched before departure.
  • Perform daily yard walkthroughs to monitor trailer positioning, chalking, and dock assignments.
  • Serve as the on-site communication bridge between drivers, facility staff, and GH Logistics dispatch.

Support Duties:

  • File daily safety and incident reports in line with company protocols.
  • Enforce padlock and strap security compliance on sealed units.
  • Track and update real-time trailer inventory for accuracy.
  • Assist drivers with trailer repositioning and validate equipment readiness (chocks, lights, straps, etc.).
  • Escalate any driver behavior or safety violations to leadership.

Required:

  • Ability to pass federal facility clearance background check.
  • Strong written and verbal communication skills (shift logs, incident reports, handoff reporting).
  • High situational awareness in yard/dock environments.

Preferred:

  • Experience in logistics, dispatch, dock supervision, or yard management.
  • Familiarity with ELD tracking tools, trailer equipment, and DOT safety protocols.
  • Forklift certification or prior OSHA training.

  • Opportunity to obtain federal facility clearance.
  • Growth pathway into dispatch, safety, or fleet management.
