Aim Transportation Solutions is hosting a hiring event at our Buffalo, NY location. On Wednesday, November 9th, from 8:00 a.m. - 7:00 p.m. We are hiring diesel mechanics with on-the-spot interviews and offers and we will be raffling off a pair of tickets to the November 20th Bills v Browns game at Ralph Wilson Stadium to one lucky individual who interviews at the event. Winner will be chosen at random.
Aim Transportation Solutions is thrilled to announce the promotion of Jessica Bochy Deane to Vice President of Marketing. Since coming on board in 2008, Deane has risen through the ranks by forming and growing Aim’s marketing department into a well-oiled machine for lead generation and brand elevation.
As Aim’s Vice President of Marketing, Deane will continue to lead the company’s marketing efforts on multiple fronts: promoting Aim’s unparalleled commercial fleet services, managing Aim’s brand identity, and, as of 2022, promoting Aim as an employer to foster recruiting and improve retention.
Diesel mechanics are the backbone of the transportation industry. Unfortunately, though, the national technician shortage has been gaining momentum, especially during the last few years. Countless variables are contributing to the shortage, which means there’s no easy fix. Because of this, the recruiting environment is fierce, and businesses are having to get creative and dump a ton of time, money and resources to attract candidates from a shrinking pool of available qualified diesel mechanics.
As Aim Transportation Solutions continues to provide industry-leading service to customers all across the United States, we are proud to announce the promotion of two individuals working to shape our Virtual Facilities.
More than 1,200 employees proudly call Aim Transportation Solutions home. Why? Because just as Aim strives to be a best-in-class provider of commercial fleet services, Aim strives to be a best-in-class employer. A key foundation of being a career destination—like Aim—is communication, providing transparency, guidance and support.
Ten years of business partnership is a message unto itself. It’s one that demonstrates value, satisfaction and an ongoing mutually beneficial relationship. On that, Aim Transportation Solutions recently hit a landmark 10-year anniversary with one of many of its long-term customers: Hensley Beverage Company. Starting in 2010, Hensley has been benefitting from Aim’s ProShop service, a unique offering in which Aim assumes the responsibilities (and liability) of a business’s on-site fleet maintenance shop, and, in turn, the customer receives all the benefits of Aim’s decades of maintenance experience as well as its vast cost-cutting resource network.
What underpins the years-long partnership between Aim and Michael Lewis Company (MLCo)? One word: Family.
Both companies are privately held and family owned, which, as Adam Kunz, manager at MLCo, suggests, forms a unique bond, one built on trust. “That family connection is very important to us,” he said, “something we hang our hats on.”
In 2013, Columbus Vegetable Oils made a business decision the company’s general manager, John Healy, would classify as one marked by peace of mind and reliability: signing a full-service leasing contract with Aim.
“It’s a win-win,” Healy said. “They give me so much ease-of-mind that I know they’re watching my trucks, and I don’t have to worry about it.”
Healy goes on to mention the added value like scheduled maintenance, shop proximity and the overall dependability, like that of his salesmen, Aim Senior Account Executive John Matthews.
Longtime and valued Aim Integrated Logistics customer Family Express, an award-winning Indiana convenience store chain, was looking for a way to overhaul their delivery process. They had a primary goal in mind, which was to improve the quality of life for their drivers through safety and scheduling, triggering a collaborative effort to reimagine their delivery process and put it into action.
Aim has taken on the maintenance responsibilities for an additional 100 tractors and 225 trailers, thanks to a new Aim ProShop agreement with General Transport Inc., a family-owned transportation and logistics company based in Akron, Ohio.
