Trident Transport has named Jeff Kotiw as their vice president of strategic accounts, a new position for the company.
Mr. Kotiw comes from an extensive background in logistics where he spent his first four years in the industry at PFT Roberson as a sales manager shortly after graduating from Southern Illinois University, Carbondale. Throughout his two-decade long career in logistics, he’s held titles such as vice president of sales before moving into the role of vice president of strategic accounts.
“Trident was up against four other companies when I was deciding where I wanted to continue my career,” said Mr.
Kotiw. “The company is on a smaller level and scaling; what this company has accomplished so far and continues to accomplish excites me.”
With his diverse background in all modes of transportation, Mr. Kotiw services tier one accounts for Trident.
“My work philosophy is simple. I create a game plan and attack it every day like it’s war,” said Mr. Kotiw. “And I truly love what I do. I enjoy building relationships and connections.”
The newly added role to the company is one of many expansions Trident is focusing on in the new year, officials said, including the addition of Enterprise Operations and the continued growth of Trident’s three branches in Tennessee, Florida and Minnesota.
