Location: Remote, hybrid to Atlanta, or on-site Asheville (preferred) Reports to: Founder/CEO Type: Full-Time, Salaried Compensation: $110,000 to $140,000 base plus 15% bonus tied to performance metrics Relocation: Relocation assistance available for the right candidate (Asheville, NC office only) Growth Path: This role is designed to scale into a VP of Operations seat as Serve Freight grows This is an immediate hire. We are actively interviewing and will move quickly for the right candidate. Why This Role Most operations roles in freight hand you an existing system and ask you to maintain it. This one is the opposite. You are building the operating system for a brokerage that is scaling fast, and you have a CEO who wants you to own it. In your first 90 days you will see be able to tangibly feel the difference you are making in the organization. In your first year you will have built the playbooks, the cadence, and the team standards that the company runs on for the next phase of growth. The work is visible, the impact s measurable, and the opportunity for growth is real. If you are an operator who has been waiting for a seat where you build the engine instead of inheriting one, this is that seat. About Serve Freight Serve Freight is a third-party logistics provider specializing in high-stakes, time-sensitive, and complex shipments. We are building a multi-division logistics platform with a freight brokerage that runs like a machine. Founded and led by John Pidgorodetskiy, Serve Freight is a founder-driven company with a clear vision and an accelerating growth curve. John brings high standards, a bias for pace, and a willingness to invest in the people who help him build the company. You will work with him directly on the operational decisions that shape where the business goes next. Location Flexibility We are open to the following arrangements, in order of preference: • On-site Asheville, NC (relocation assistance available), • Hybrid in Charlotte, Cleveland (OH), or Atlanta with some travel to Asheville, • Fully remote for exceptional candidates with a strong record of operating remotely in a freight brokerage environment The Role As the Director of Operations (Brokerage), you will play a central role in scaling Serve Freight's operational infrastructure and execution quality.

Your primary job is building and running the internal engine that makes everything work seamlessly.

This role is for an operator who doesn't just build the engine but can squeeze every ounce of horsepower out of it for consistent results.
