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.
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
