  Description

  Since 1977, Pacific Coast Fresh Company has been a key player in the Pacific Northwest food scene. What started as a family-run produce business has grown into one of the region’s top independent food distributors—delivering everything from farm-fresh produce to dairy, proteins, and specialty goods across the Northwest and into Canada.

  We’re more than just a distribution company—we’re a community. Built on the values of Service, Quality, Integrity, Purposeful Growth, Sustainability, and Family, we’re committed to doing good work with good people.

  The Role at a Glance:
  We’re currently seeking a Transportation Supervisor to support the day-to-day operations of our Portland-based transportation department. This is a hands-on leadership role where you’ll help coordinate driver schedules, maintain operational efficiency, reinforce a strong safety culture, and support overall performance.

  If you're organized, solutions-oriented, and ready to lead a team that helps feed communities every day, we’d love to meet you.

  Your Day-to-Day Impact:

  • Support the Transportation Manager in all areas of daily operations including driver, route, and asset management

  • Schedule drivers and manage on-call staffing to meet business needs

  • Recommend staffing changes or adjustments based on workload demands

  • Participate in hiring and onboarding new drivers and team members

  • Promote and model PCF values through day-to-day leadership

  • Foster a culture of safety and accountability across the department

  • Prepare and maintain key reporting on department performance, including on-time delivery, MPG, productivity, and safety

  • Support department and company KPIs by using data to drive decisions and improvements

  • Attend and contribute to team meetings, safety trainings, and performance reviews

  What You'll Bring to the Table:

  • Bachelor’s degree preferred, with at least 3 years of transportation or logistics experience (or equivalent combination of education and experience)

  • Class A CDL preferred

  • Proven ability to lead, coach, and build trust with a diverse team

  • Strong written and verbal communication skills

  • A team-first mindset with the ability to balance daily operations with long-term strategy

  • Comfort with data analysis, performance metrics, and reporting to drive process improvements

  • Proficiency in Microsoft Office, especially Excel, and ability to quickly learn logistics and routing software

  Why This is More Than a Job:

  At PCF, we believe in growing people alongside the business. When you join our team, you’ll enjoy:

  • Competitive pay and full benefits (medical, dental, vision)

  • 401(k) with profit sharing

  • Paid time off and holiday pay

  • Opportunities for development and advancement

  • A collaborative team environment rooted in respect and shared purpose

  • Access to fresh, healthy produce through our employee programs

  This is more than a job—it’s a chance to build a career with a company that values your ideas, supports your growth, and celebrates your contributions.
