Act as liaison between drivers and customers to protect service quality

Warehouse Check-In Support (AM)

Direct returning driver teams on haul-away, trash segregation, and asset drop zones
Ensure drivers complete warehouse check-in procedures
Identify and report missing assets or non-compliance

Team Leadership & Communication

Provide direction and escalation support to CSR staff during shift
Document daily service disruptions, late departures, and operational issues
Share insights and recommendations with Operations leadership
