You will streamline carrier onboarding, verify driver temperature-controlled experience, and support load-level approvals. Success in this role means maintaining a top-tier produce carrier network, reducing claim exposures, and ensuring data integrity across high-value/high-risk lanes.
What You'll Do
Carrier Verification: Lead the verification and onboarding process specifically for produce carriers, ensuring compliance with cold-chain protocols, reefer unit certification, and FSMA Sanitary Transportation Rule requirements.
Proactive Network Vetting: Utilize internal tools and third-party monitoring services to proactively identify and remove non-compliant, fraudulent, or high-risk produce carriers from the network.
Prospect Qualification: Accelerate business growth for Arrive Fresh by efficiently vetting sales-prospect reefer carriers, maintaining operational momentum, and confirming execution of the Arrive Fresh produce addendum.
Real-Time Status Updates: Update and maintain carrier compliance systems to reflect real-time status changes, including reefer equipment checks, safety alerts, and authority revocations.
Profile Reviews: Conduct detailed reviews of carrier profiles, verifying temperature recording capabilities and produce handling history to support network expansion.
Carrier Data Accuracy: Ensure high data accuracy to support produce operational efficiency and risk management, verifying contact information, temperature monitoring protocols, and insurance coverages.
HVHR Alignment: Ensure Fresh carriers meet Arrive's High-Value/High-Risk (HVHR) vetting standards, authority checks, and produce-specific restrictions.
Industry Reporting & Fraud Prevention: Review industry reports (FreightGuard, WatchDog, etc.) to flag fraudulent actors, double-brokering, or fictitious pickups targeting produce shipments.
Temperature & Seal Protocols: Implement and monitor strict adherence to seal integrity, temperature recorder protocols, and cold-chain security requirements.
Sales & Ops Liaison: Respond to escalations, clarify produce-specific compliance protocols, and provide rapid resolution to keep sales and ops teams moving quickly.
SOP Maintenance: Build and update compliance-related Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) for produce carrier onboarding, vetting standards, and decertifications.
Process Enhancements: Propose enhancements based on carrier feedback, audit findings, and regulatory updates impacting reefer and produce transportation.
Industry & Regulatory Tracking: Stay current with FMCSA policy changes, PACA updates, and cold-chain technology trends to adjust internal compliance workflows accordingly.
