LTL Cross Dock Access Gate Guard
$47.84kFull-time
Advatix, Inc.
LTL Cross Dock Access Guard HRforGrowth® is engaged as the exclusive talent acquisition partner to conduct this search on behalf of a client organization that is hiring for this role. HRforGrowth is not the employer for this position. HRforGrowth identifies, evaluates, and presents top-tier candidates through its global talent acquisition practice; all employment decisions — including final selection, offer terms, compensation, and conditions of employment — are made solely by the hiring organization. Position Summary The LTL Cross Dock Access Guard serves as the primary point of control for all inbound and outbound traffic entering and exiting a high-volume LTL cross-dock campus. This position is responsible for managing gate operations across a six-acre transportation and distribution facility, ensuring the secure, compliant, and efficient movement of tractors, trailers, employees, visitors, and contractors. Unlike a traditional security guard role, this position functions as an operational partner to site leadership, transportation teams, and warehouse operations. The successful candidate will utilize technology, critical thinking, and professional judgment to mitigate risks, maintain security standards, ensure regulatory compliance, and support uninterrupted logistics operations. This role combines security oversight, transportation coordination, customer service, and access control administration. This position builds upon the responsibilities identified in the current Access Guard role while expanding operational, and logistics coordination responsibilities.
