Director of Transportation Full Time NEW

Company Description

American Transfers & Tours has been moving people for more than four decades. What began as transportation for senior and tour groups evolved into a nationally recognized ground transportation management company serving conventions, sporting events, entertainment venues, corporate clients, and critical-response operations across the country. ATT manages the full scope of transportation logistics from planning through execution, including event shuttle programs, airport meet-and-greet, employee and crew shuttles, parking management, and rapid-deployment transportation for time-sensitive and high-demand situations.

Role Description

The Transportation Director leads ATT’s ground transportation operations across all active and prospective engagements. This role is accountable for the strategic planning, execution oversight, and scalability of transportation programs spanning events, conventions, corporate accounts, and rapid-deployment operations nationwide. The Director manages multi-project complexity, owns high-level client relationships, and builds the operational infrastructure that allows ATT to grow into new markets and contract types. When not managing active deployments, this role is forward-facing: developing processes, pursuing strategic accounts, and positioning ATT to compete and win. Regular domestic travel is required, including extended periods during major deployments and events.

• Proficiency in Microsoft Office Suite; working knowledge of Excel-based reporting, budgeting, and scheduling tools
• Familiarity with livery or transportation management software platforms used for dispatch, scheduling, and client operations
• Willingness and ability to travel domestically on a regular basis, including extended periods during major deployments and events

Preferred Qualifications

• Direct experience in event transportation services, destination management companies, convention logistics, or large-scale passenger transportation operations
• Background in healthcare transportation, hospital shuttle programs, or medically adjacent service environments

• Experience with CRM systems and pipeline management tools
• Based in or willing to relocate to a state where ATT maintains a entity (Texas, Florida, Washington D.C., Illinois or Nevada)
