Drive Your Business Forward With Top Talent
Transportation Recruiters
Today’s transportation industry is in constant flux. Companies in the sector are struggling to cope with the rising demand amid the recent e-commerce boom. With labor shortages and changing customer expectations, it is more important than ever for companies to place experienced professionals in leadership positions capable of solving the transportation industry’s complex operating issues.
As one of the leading transportation and supply chain recruiters, Keller helps bridge this gap by connecting companies with the best talent for executive and leadership roles. We help businesses in the transportation industry source the best candidates to fill their open roles.
What We Do
Our transportation and supply chain recruitment process aims to connect clients with executives and leaders who specialize in excelling and thriving in today’s challenging business environment. We do this through:
Assessment
During our initial assessment, we evaluate beyond a candidate’s track record. Our team of professional headhunters also considers other more intricate factors, including a candidate’s personality, work ethic, motivational drivers, and cultural alignment.
Talent Acquisition
We supply clients with the best candidates who meet their hiring requirements. We take several steps to create a large pool of diverse talents, including posting on online job search platforms, making queries across social media, leveraging our deep network of connections for referrals, and making cold calls and emails to executives who are actively or passively looking for new opportunities.
Organization Transformation
Our team has in-depth knowledge of the transportation industry, having worked in it for years. This allows us to offer clients services beyond executive search, including guidance on improving processes and boosting employee engagement.
Our Approach to Transportation Executive Search
Our team of headhunters specializes in offering bespoke executive search services to clients. Our approach is tailored to our client’s hiring needs, expectations, and business goals. We are passionate about sourcing the best candidates so our clients can focus on what matters: their business.
Throughout every search, Keller recruiters implement a thorough vetting process to identify the most suitable candidates. Comprehensive background and reference checks, coupled with necessary police verifications, enable us to swiftly eliminate unsuitable candidates.
At Keller, we champion fairness. We evaluate each candidate solely on their merit, free from biases related to gender, age, ethnicity, or beliefs.
