This is Jason Hinton. He joined us 6 months ago as a forklift truck driver loading our pallet lorries in Highbridge ready for their deliveries. Hungry to learn, Jason quickly demonstrated a desire to get involved with the planning of our deliveries. Today, that's exactly what he does! Below he tells us about his journey. What does a typical day look like for you? I start by scanning all inbound trunks (these are the lorries that bring the pallets from the pallet hubs ready to be sorted and delivered). Then I finalise the deliveries that are due out on that day and start loading the vehicles. After this, I allocate 2nd, and sometimes 3rd, runs for the drivers. Sometimes I also get involved in organising collections, and I deal with any inter-depot phone calls. Then I usually do a final bay check before heading home. Why do you enjoy working at Gregory Group? I've always had a desire to work towards a higher position, but up until now, I haven't had the opportunity to take the next step. At Gregory Group, I saw an opportunity and felt supported enough to give it a go. I really enjoy leaving work knowing we have a 100% delivery rate (or as close as possible to achieving this). Knowing I have a strong connection to that success due to my planning gives me a sense of achievement. What advice would you give to someone considering this role as a career? Be open-minded and remember it's transport - if something doesn't go wrong during the day, you've been very lucky! There are so many factors that can impact deliveries; it's important not to get disheartened. Enjoy the victories, learn from the defeats, and keep going! What advice would you give to someone wishing to move up the career ladder at Gregory Group? If you see an opportunity that suits your skillset, grab the bull by the horns. Demonstrate what you can do, both in your role and for the wider team, and you will be noticed. For me, doors I thought would never open have done. I've gone from a job where I felt under-utilised to one where my skills are being recognised. #OurPeople #DeliveringWinners

When the #DMTeam gathered to celebrate our Annual Driver Award winners, we had a surprise up our sleeve. All-star recruiter and Starke, FL staple Kim Brown was named Recruiter of the Year! There would be no driver awards if we didn't have a team of recruiters working every day to bring on the best of the best. Out of all the incredible recruiters on our team in 2023, Kim rose to the top as a leader on the team and as the recruiter with the most hires. Kim didn't only win because of her numbers; she won because of her heart. More than anything, Kim strives to find drivers their perfect fit for long-term success. She truly cares about each of her recruits and leads by example, even when challenges arise. We caught up with Kim after the ceremony and had a little Q&A. Learn more about our Recruiter of the Year and show your appreciation for her in the comments! 1. You have been on the recruiting team at DMT through a lot of changes and growth. What is it about your job that keeps you coming back for more? My days fly by! Some are more stressful than others but what keeps me coming back every day is that I do feel like I am making a difference. 2. What is your favorite thing to tell potential drivers about DMT? I love to tell drivers that THEY are the MOST important asset we have. Once hired I do love it when they repeat back to me anything that I said that helped them make the decision to come HERE! 3. What is one fact about you that people might not know? I am a grandmother of four terrific grandbabies, ranging in age from 17 years old, 12 years old, 7 years old and 4 years old – a perfect mix of 2 grand daughters and 2 grandsons 😊. Another fun fact is that I teach gentle yoga – I specialize in NEWBIES. 4. You are the example of success in recruiting at DMT. What motivates you? It motivates me to KNOW that I am helping drivers and their families. LOVE it when a driver says something like Thank you Miss Kim for your help. Love it even more When we are able to get a new driver trained in flatbedding and they stay in touch with me and keep on showing me their appreciation and their love. 5. Do you want to give any shout outs? Shout out to P&S Tyler Hearin who from Day 1 (and I wasn’t in recruiting at the time) said: THERE IS YOUR DMT RECRUITER! Also a shout out to Sherri Sherman and Ashley Cunningham who always believed in me! Shout out to Harold Smith for unbelievable management skills yet love at the same time. My newest shout out is to my new boss, Donna Ward who is so helpful and supportive! Congratulations, Kim! Thanks for all you do!

When hiring a new driver, it’s important to find someone who knows how to operate a truck, has a good driving record, and can navigate traffic like a pro. But a driver’s soft skills—the non-technical skills that impact the ways in which they work—are equally critical. Here are a few delivery driver soft skills that, if present in your new hire, are signs that they will likely be a great addition to your driving team.
