This full-time, first-shift role offers the opportunity to combine leadership, coaching, and operational excellence in a position that directly impacts the experience of every driver on our team. With industry-leading benefits starting on day one, you’ll have the resources and support to help others succeed—while building your own future as an employee-owner.

The Role:

As the Driver Success Manager , you’ll be the key contact for drivers during their early weeks on the job and beyond, championing onboarding, training, and ongoing support. You’ll work closely with HR & Safety, Operations, and Dispatch to ensure every driver is set up for success.

Primary Responsibilities:

  • Support New Drivers – Be the first point of contact after onboarding, welcome new drivers with one-on-one or team lunches, and make sure they feel connected.
  • Manage Training & Development – Prepare and update training materials, coordinate trainers with dispatch/planners, and ensure every driver gets the support they need during their first 4–8 weeks.
  • Oversee Schedules & Requests – Handle driver requests for routes, zone transfers, or shift changes, working with Regional Managers to find the best solutions that balances busines needs with driver well-being.
  • Ensure Accuracy & Efficiency – Compile and send driver hours reports, scrub payroll hours for accuracy, and highlight opportunities to save managers time.
  • Guide Reviews & Feedback – Build driver performance reviews, schedule meetings with managers, and attend as a support to ensure consistent feedback and development that encourages growth.
  • Promote Safety First – Maintain a safety-first mindset, manage safety video coaching for minor incidents, and escalate major trends to leadership. Work with drivers to reinforce safe driving practices.
  • Drive Continuous Improvement – Take driver suggestions, review system changes (McLeod, Samsara, etc.), and work with leaders to implement improvements that streamline work and make drivers’ jobs easier.

Why Inontime?

At Inontime, we know our team is the heart of our business—and the Driver Success Manager is their advocate and guide. In this role, you’ll make a real difference in how drivers are welcomed, trained, and supported. And because we’re an ESOP company, the success you help create comes back to you in the form of shared ownership.

When you join Inontime, you’re not just taking a job—you’re helping build a company where people and service come first.
