About Us

CDLLife is the largest and most-engaged digital community of truck drivers in the United States, reaching millions monthly through media and our AI-powered recruiting platform, CDLConnect.io.

We’re a tech + media company, headquartered in Kansas City, MO with the majority of our team based in Kansas City as well.

Over the past decade, we’ve served nearly 1,500 different trucking companies, helping drive the marketing and advertising initiatives needed to help them achieve their truck driver recruitment goals.

Role Description

We are entering our next growth phase of the company and are seeking a talented Senior Customer Success Manager to join our growing team.

By working hand-in-hand with our lead generation and driver recruitment technologies, our Customer Success team empowers customers to maximize value and achieve their driver recruitment goals.

You will report directly to the Customer Success Lead of our Direct Team.
