We want this for everyone who walks through our doors to join Team Convoy, including you! Long term employees are enormously valuable to any company, and we recognize this because we we work alongside them every day, people who have spent decades building their careers here. Meet a few members of Team Convoy, and hear what they love about working here.
Love What You Do
Rick joined Team Convoy as our Branch Manager in Nanaimo in 1997. He progressed to managing two branches, then became Operations Manager for Vancouver Island, and eventually was promoted to his current roles as Regional Sales Manager – Vancouver Island and Lower Mainland.
Rick credits his career at Convoy to several factors, including loving the people he gets to work with (both colleagues and customers), having new challenges and opportunities every day, and that the company always offers opportunities to grow. He says Convoy allows you to be whoever you want to be; it’s your choice. His advice is to give everything you have at work, and then set it aside at the end of the day and enjoy. When you do that, and love what you do, every day is a great day.
Want to Play Outside
Mark has advice for anyone who enjoys being outside and playing with big equipment: follow in his footsteps! He’s been with Convoy Supply since 2015 but has already made an impact. Mark had worked in the construction delivery and associated fields for nearly two decades. He saw Convoy’s trucks on the road and always felt they were well taken care of and up to date, so he applied for a position and was hired as a Crane Operator.
He says there’s a lot to like about being at Convoy: the atmosphere, the people, the challenges, plus good hours and a retirement plan. There’s also opportunity for advancement; his hard work, care, and respect for customer satisfaction led to a recent promotion to Operations Manager for his branch.
Effort is Rewarded
Adam has a straightforward message for those thinking about joining Convoy: if you’re willing to put in the work to be successful, Convoy will be there to reward and recognize your efforts. He’s been with Team Convoy for over two decades, and he loves the company’s family atmosphere and support for career growth.
Like many members of our team, Adam’s career track is built upon his strengths and provides opportunities to use and grow his skills, a path that began back in 1995 as a newly certified Class 3 Convoy truck driver. His work ethic, desire to learn, and skill at relationship building led to a position as Warehouse Supervisor and then eventually to Account Manager, where he continues to develop many of the relationships he began as a driver.
