Driver Recruitment Lead & Assistant Safety Manager

We're looking for an Driver Recruitment Lead & Assistant Safety Manager who genuinely believes that great drivers make great communities. You'll lead our driver recruitment efforts from first conversation to first day behind the wheel, building relationships with prospective drivers and supporting them every step of the way. You'll conduct safety meetings that feel less like policy reviews and more like team huddles - because that's what they are.

This role requires holding a Class B CDL with proper endorsements, so you'll know firsthand what it means to navigate a school bus route and to earn the trust of the families we serve. We provide in-house training if needed.

What You'll Do

• Lead hands-on driver recruitment, selection, and hiring - connecting with community members who share our commitment to safe, caring transportation
• Build and maintain driver files, ensuring every driver on our team meets school bus qualifications and stays current
• Develop and conduct regular safety meetings, creating materials that resonate with real drivers doing real work
• Be a resource drivers can count on - answering questions, addressing concerns, and coaching with empathy and expertise
• Respond to accidents and incidents with a steady, solutions-focused approach
• Drive bus routes or charters as needed, staying connected to the daily experience of our drivers
• Maintain full compliance with DOT, FMCSA, and CSA regulations
• Participate in weekend duty rotations.

Qualifications

• Safety experience; formal education in transportation or a safety-related field is a plus
• Deep knowledge of DOT, FMCSA, and CSA regulations, including 49 CFR drug and alcohol rules and hours-of-service regulations for the U.S. and Canada
• A people-first leadership style with strong communication, coaching, and relationship-building skills
• Sharp attention to detail and strong organizational instincts
• The ability to stay calm and think clearly when situations get difficult
• Comfort with technology and a willingness to explore tools that make our team's work better
• A Class B CDL with appropriate endorsements (or the commitment to obtain one), with no airbrake restriction

Compensation & Benefits

Lamers Bus Lines offers a comprehensive benefits package designed to support the whole employee:

• Competitive compensation commensurate with experience
• Medical, dental, and vision insurance
• Company-paid life insurance and dependent life insurance
• Short-term and long-term disability coverage
• 401(k) retirement plan with company match
• Paid holidays and paid time off (PTO)
• Flexible Spending Account (FSA) and Health Savings Account (HSA) options
• Direct deposit payroll
• Clear pathways for career advancement - Lamers promotes from within
