Transportation Company: Jim Fishpaw Joins Daylight Transport As Director Of Administration

Daylight Transport LLC, one of the leading expedited less-than-truckload (LTL) transportation and logistics company, has recently created a new position—director of administration—which Jim Fishpaw has been selected to fill. This announcement was made recently by Kacey Fallert, president of Daylight Transport.

"Jim brings a unique blend of experience in human resources management as well as call center and less-than-truckload operations to the team," stated Fallert. "I am confident his skills will have an immediate and positive impact on Daylight Transport's ongoing Customer Retention Program." The program focuses on bringing more value to the customer experience.

In his new position, Fishpaw will leverage 17 years of human resources experience and supervise the managers of both the customer service and human resources departments. He will be in charge of streamlining and modernizing related departmental procedures.

Fishpaw has most recently served as the director of human resources for Con-way Freight-Western. In this capacity, he was responsible for the administration of human resources policies and procedures; recruitment, selection and retention initiatives; performance appraisal and disciplinary action; and compliance with related employment laws as well as internal and external audit compliance. Prior to that, he served in various management roles and was an original startup team member for Con-way NOW, where he was instrumental in hiring, training and providing human resource management for the call center workforce.

"From my perspective, Daylight Transport is a successful company positioned for further growth in the marketplace," said Fishpaw. "The top-shelf management team and the well-structured operations environment were key elements in my decision to join the company. I look forward to adding value to that which has already been established at Daylight Transport."

Fishpaw graduated from The Ohio State University with a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration with an emphasis in human resource management. Jim went on to earn his Master in Business Administration from Clemson University.

More About Daylight Transport

The second is Daylight's Urgent Care Service, which guarantees delivery on the day promised or the invoice charges are waived. Daylight offers expedited LTL freight delivery across the U.S., guaranteed time-definite service in addition to air freight, volume and truckload services nationally, and full-service warehousing and logistics services in the California market.
