CDL-A Truck Driver Mentor (Home Weekly)

American Transport Team
Livonia, MI

Job Type: Full-Time | Driver Trainer / Mentor
Experience Required: CDL-A with minimum training eligibility

Why This Job Stands Out:

Tired of getting paid for only your miles? As a Driver Mentor , you'll earn for every single mile the truck drives — whether it's you or your student behind the wheel. That means more pay, faster while helping new drivers launch their careers.

Pay & Bonuses:

  • Weekly Base Pay: $1,225 – $1,455 (before any bonuses)

  • Base CPM + Tiered Pay Scale (experience-based)

  • + $0.10 CPM while training

  • + $0.04 CPM productivity bonus

  • Bonuses after student milestones:

    • $500 after 10K safe miles

    • $300 after 20K safe miles

  • Elite Mentor Rewards : After 6 students trained, earn $0.01 CPM for every mile they drive in their 1st solo year

Mentor Program Structure:

  • Runs average 11 days OTR (NOT 3–4 weeks out like other mentor roles)

  • Students must drive minimum 5 hours per day — you can maximize the rest of the 14-hour clock

  • Flexible breaks: Take a week off or run solo between students

  • Paid Development Training: $850 completion pay + extra bonuses for student pickup/dispatch

Professional Mentor Development

  • NextGen Mentor Training Program (hotel & meals provided)

  • Online training checklist for smoother mentoring

  • Structured system designed to set mentors & students up for success

✅ What You Get:

  • Paid on all truck miles (driver + student)

  • Priority loads & dispatch

  • Bonus programs that stack with CPM

  • Long-term passive earnings from your trained students

  • Medical, Dental, Vision + 401(k) w/ company match

  • Paid holidays, vacation, and wage increases

Requirements:

  • CDL-A License (clean record required)

  • At least 3+ months driving experience (mentor-eligible)

  • Must pass DOT drug screen & background check

  • Professional attitude & ability to coach new drivers
