Description

THE POSTITION

This role owns the data and systems layer that connects Evans' Account Management and Carrier Procurement teams. Today, a lot of that work lives in scattered spreadsheets, one-off exports, and manual pulls. This person will replace that patchwork with reporting, dashboards, and workflows that are fast, accurate, and self-serve.

We're not looking for someone who simply runs reports on request. We need someone who can design the system behind the report: fetch the data, build the pipeline, automate the repeat work, and free up the people who are doing this by hand today.

This role intentionally blends two functions that split into separate teams at larger brokerages: data/BI and pricing. At Evans' current scale, one person owns both end to end. As we grow, this role is positioned to lead whichever side of that split we build out first.

Requirements

ROLES AND RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Consolidate today’s scattered manual reports and exports into standing, repeatable pulls for Account Management and Carrier Procurement
  • Design how data flows between MercuryGate, the DAT integration, Excel tools, and any BI layer, and keep it documented
  • Identify recurring manual work (data pulls, report assembly, status updates) and build the automation or AI-assisted workflows to remove it
  • Consolidate the department’s live dashboards into a single, current, trusted set
  • Track, prioritize, and close incoming data and reporting requests from Account Management, Carrier Procurement, and Yield
  • Improve the waterfall and auto-tendering workflow to carriers, and clean up contract vs. spot labeling inside the TMS
  • Blend Evans’ different data sources (TMS, market rate data, carrier data) into a single view, and help build a new truckload rating engine from that foundation
  • Partner with Account Management, Carrier Procurement, and Yield leadership to understand what they need from the data before building it
  • Perform all other duties as assigned.
