Congratulations to Jay Pilot for being selected Manager of the Quarter for the Central Region for Q3! Jay is an Operations Supervisor at the Southern States Account in Cloverdale, VA. Jay is a valuable member of the team, bringing a wealth of knowledge from his years in the industry. Jay's hard work and dedication has benefitted not only JB Hunt but our customer as well. Congratulations Jay!
The Brand Region nominates Jay Pilot as manager of the quarter. Jay started with JB Hunt as a professional
driver during startup in May of 2016 and transitioned into the office in the
Spring of 2017. Before JB Hunt, Jay
worked at UPS Freight. He has worked
with Southern States Cloverdale in some capacity going all the way back to
2006. The amount of knowledge he has
accumulated and retained is extremely valuable to the account.
Two of Jay’s most valuable attributes are his work ethic and ability to relate to others. He is the first one in the office and last one to leave. Drivers turn to him for guidance, especially on their next dispatch as he can route a driver from one store to next using nothing but his memory. He is also extremely professional with his superiors and his customer. If either were to ask anything of him, he gets it done immediately.
Every Fall, Jay takes the lead role in managing the trade show for Southern States in Charlotte, NC. He plans the logistics, selects the drivers, and solves any problems that happen along the way. This past trade show, Hurricane Florence came barreling through the Charlotte area on the weekend all the trailer moves were to take place. The forecast was calling for high winds, torrential rain, poor visibility, and likely flooding. Jay worked closely with Southern States & the convention center to move those trailers before the worst part of the storm hit.
Thank you, Jay, for all the fantastic work and professionalism!
