Logistics is one of the single largest industries in the world. Globally, logistics is an $8-$12 trillion dollar industry and in the US alone, ~$2 trillion, representing ~10% of GDP. A single percent of improvement drives profound change to every corner of the world — from the cost of our goods, to the livelihoods of local communities, to even the impact on our environment.
To reshape the industry, at TruckSmarter, our focus is first on truck drivers.
Trucks move 71% of freight in America (~$800bn annually) & the trucking industry represents nearly 6% of the full-time jobs in the country. If you look around you, every item has sat on a truck at one point on its journey to you. However, despite the industry being one of the greatest levers of innovation throughout history, it is still deeply fragmented & structurally misaligned. Our mission is to fix that — and we need your help.
We are looking for a team member who is excited to support our growing fintech business by providing a world class customer experience to our factoring and banking users.
The following represents the expected compensation for this role:
• The annual salary range for this role is $53K-$55K + equity + benefits (listed below).
Working model: TruckSmarter offers an in-office collaborative culture. This role is based out of our downtown Chicago office, and requires in-office presence three days per week (typically Mondays, Wednesdays, and Fridays).
Our benefits include: Health insurance (medical, dental, and vision), 401(k) plan, short-term and long-term disability leave, unlimited paid time off, a monthly health & wellness stipend, catered lunches (and dinners after 6pm).
