Want a career change?

Is it time for a change?

Have you been thinking of a new career path? Or maybe you like the path, you just want to revisit who you work for at the moment?

The logistics industry isn’t only for those in sales. Some would argue that one of the most important people in the industry are logistics coordinators (LC). They are the ones that keep things moving between customers, brokers and carriers.

Guess what? You’re in luck! We are hiring for the LC role. We’ll explain what’s in it for you.
Most people care about the pay first, so we will start there.

We take pride in our work here at PGT and want you to as well. This role offers a base salary plus a lucrative incentive package. The incentive package could include commission, bonuses, performance-related awards, etc. It’s really up to you and how hard you choose to work. Ultimately, how much you get paid is entirely in your own control.

What else does PGT have to offer? Let us break it down for you by highlighting some of the most important parts.

Relaxed. Casual. Fun. Sound good yet? PGT is all of those things and then some. We want everyone to enjoy coming to work. Sure, there are always going to be bad days, but we believe there are more good days than bad here. There are TVs going, music in the background, and often jokes and stories flying back and forth. We enjoy simple things like casual attire, walks around the building, flexibility, and team events outside of the office.

Our list of benefits continues to grow as we grow. We currently offer a 401k with a 401k match! We want you to be with us until you retire, so let us help get you there. We pay a cell phone stipend and paid time off at time of hire. In addition, we can get you set up with medical, dental and vision insurance. Not bad for a company less than two years old, right?

New company = endless opportunities. We have a solid staff that has laid the groundwork for success, now we just need you to help build the foundation of our future. As we grow, so do the opportunities. The potential to move up into various other roles is endless. You can do as much as you want with us and go as far as you want to go. You control your destiny when you work at PGT. How far do you want to go?

Sounds good, right?

T is for Teamwork

Teamwork makes the dream work

Every company has core values. When PGT was started, having the right core values was vital. Those values had to drive honest success and bring values to everyone involved in our business.

We determined that T.I.M.E. was our most valuable asset. In every interaction, we strive to uphold our values to keep our team and your business on track.

What does T.I.M.E. mean for you?

Rather than expand on it all in one way-too-long blog, we will be breaking it down each week for the rest of the month.

Today’s focus: T is for Teamwork.

Everyone knows the phrase “teamwork makes the dream work,” right? That’s definitely what we believe at PGT.

Each account manager has relationships he/she has built with customers. But what happens when an account manager wants to take a family vacation or has an emergency? Or what if they are in a meeting or stepped out for lunch briefly? At PGT, your service will not change. Our team jumps on board to ensure we don’t miss a beat. Still need freight moved or an update on a shipment? No problem! Our team will get the job done for you and provide any answers you need.

Success is measured many different ways. It is always important to have individual goals, but at PGT we put a larger focus on team goals. We believe our success is based on your success, so we will build a team in our office to support the team in yours. Together we can master any challenge thrown at us. This industry can often be like a rollercoaster ride, so keeping focus on team goals is what powers us through the challenging dynamic of the logistics world.

Our team goals are simple:

100% on-time pick up
Proactive, daily updates on all shipments based on customer needs
100% on-time delivery
24-hour paperwork collection and processing
Save our customers as much money as possible

Do we achieve those goals all day, every day? No, but we will die trying! It’s obvious some things are out of everyone’s control- weather, tire blowouts, traffic- but, if we can control it, we will!

Why do you work?

The million dollar question: why do you go to work every day?

In a perfect world, you love what you do. You enjoy going to work, wherever that may be, and you are genuinely happy doing it. That doesn’t always pan out, but you do it because you need a job to pay your bills. What if we told you that having both was a very real possibility? Here us out.

The pay.

The atmosphere.

The benefits.

The growth potential.

People often save the best for last, but let’s be real- this is what most people care about first. We pay above the industry average. We are always hiring sales brokers. Why? Because we are always growing to better serve our customers. Our brokers make base + 40% uncapped commission! No, that’s not a typo. FORTY PERCENT UNCAPPED COMMISSION! Why? Because we want you to join our team and stick around for the long-term. What better way to do that to pay you what you deserve?

Relaxed. Casual. Fun. Sound good yet? PGT is all of those things and then some. We want everyone to enjoy coming to work. Sure, there are always going to be bad days, but we believe there are more good days than bad here. There are TVs going, music in the background, and often jokes and stories flying back and forth. We enjoy simple things like casual attire, walks around the building, flexibility, and team events outside of the office.

New company = endless opportunities. We have a solid staff that has laid the groundwork for success, now we just need you to help build the foundation of our future. As we grow, so do the opportunities. The potential to move up into various other roles is endless. You can do as much as you want with us and go as far as you want to go.

Can a 3PL save you money?

Can a 3PL help cut costs?

That’s a common question in the freight industry.

The answer is YES! Absolutely! 100% it can. But what’s the catch? Selecting the RIGHT 3PL for you and your business.

Insert Premier Global Transportation.

Our goal is to take as much off your plate as possible. We know our customers have plenty to do, so we want to take on as much as we can to allow them to focus on other aspects of the business. So, how can we save you money?

You know the saying- “time is money.” We can free up your time. It’s that simple. We will take on the difficult, time-consuming task of finding the right carrier to move your freight and we are very diligent in the process. We utilize many different programs and tools to vet our carriers to ensure the best service possible. We handle that so you don’t to. We believe your time is better spent on other areas of your business.

We are in the business of moving freight. It’s what we do. It’s who we are. This is what we specialize in. Let us do what we do so you can focus on what you do. We promise we won’t let you down. Our goal is always to provide you with a smooth, flawless, and impeccable service with our expertise and proactive communication. We promise to keep you informed with the most accurate status update available to build an honest working relationship with you. Our goal is complete satisfaction on every shipment.

How do we uphold that promise? Here are the top reason:

Resources.

We have invested in top of the line, customizable technology solutions. Do you want notified with an update every time it is entered in the system? Our system can do that for you. Do you require your paperwork to look a certain way with specific information included? Our developers can do that for us quickly and precisely. Do you have specific insurance, equipment, or load requirements? We can set our system to block any carrier that doesn’t meet those requirements for you to prevent service failure. Long story short- our system is customized for YOU.

People.

We pride ourselves on our top notch team of people. We hire intelligent, hard-working people who have the ability to learn, challenge themselves, and succeed in a very dynamic industry. We proudly have over 75 years combined industry experience, but at the same time, have a very diverse group of associates that aren’t afraid to bring new ideas to the table. Everyone has the same goal: help our customers be successful, no matter what it takes.

Cost.

It is no secret that freight costs have skyrocketed, specifically since the COVID pandemic. It is our mission to drive your costs down, but still pay carriers a fair wage (and make a little money ourselves, too). The key to that is our lucrative pay scale for our associates. They don’t have to worry about their personal finances through large margins on your freight. Instead, they can focus on driving your costs down knowing that they will be taken care of financially. We are only as successful as you are! Since the most common metric driving success in business is cost, let us help you save!
