We're looking for a hands-on Transportation Supervisor to lead the mixer driver team for our Nevada operations from the field, not from behind a desk. If you know concrete, know trucks, and know how to earn the respect of a driver crew, we want to talk to you.

Benefits

• Bi-weekly pay
• Comprehensive benefits package, including medical, dental, and vision coverage.
• 401(k) retirement plan with company matching.
• Paid Time Off (PTO)
• Paid Holidays

Job Requirements

This is a field role. You'll be at our Nevada plants and on job sites every day, working directly with drivers. A dedicated administrative coordinator will handle paperwork, scheduling systems, and reporting so you can focus on the people and the trucks.

• Lead, coach, and hold accountable a team of mixer truck drivers across multiple plants
• Interview and hire new drivers; participate in onboarding and ride-along training
• Enforce company safety policies and DOT/FMCSA compliance in the yard and on the road
• Conduct field observations, pre-trip inspection audits, and job-site safety checks
• Support drivers on active pours — troubleshoot truck placement issues, coordinate with crews, and step in when a job needs an extra set of hands
• Work with dispatch and plant managers on daily truck and driver deployment
• Investigate incidents, near-misses, and customer complaints; drive corrective action
• Monitor driver performance (safety, on-time delivery, yardage, truck care) and conduct reviews
• Coordinate with the shop on truck condition, downtime, and driver-reported defects
• Champion safety programs across the fleet
• Keep mixer trucks current under the NRMCA Truck Certification program and support plant certification inspections
• Build a culture where drivers show up, stay, and take pride in the work
