Trinity Logistics Shines Again as a Premier Employer for Women In Transportation
Trinity Logistics, a leading third-party logistics provider (3PL) offering logistics and supply chain solutions, proudly shares its recognition as a Top Company for Women to Work for in Transportation by the Women in Trucking Association (WIT) for the sixth consecutive year.
This prestigious honor highlights companies that demonstrate a commitment to gender diversity, inclusivity, and career advancement for women in the transportation industry. Trinity Logistics ranked highly in these areas, and the nomination was validated by an industry-wide vote involving over 31,000 transportation professionals.
“As someone who has spent my career in male-dominated industries and being relatively new to Trinity with just over two years here, I feel an immense sense of pride that Trinity has been recognized for the sixth consecutive year as a Top Company for Women to Work for in Transportation,” said Carlie Crouch, Director of Talent Management at Trinity. “There is a deep sense of understanding and support at Trinity—as mothers, coworkers, and friends. The ability to balance all aspects of my life while feeling seen and heard as a woman is something I truly value. As the Director of Talent Management, I enjoy sharing with future team members the incredible opportunities available at Trinity for women to thrive and succeed. I’m proud to be part of Team Trinity.”
Key features that distinguished Trinity Logistics included its positive and family-friendly culture that supports diversity, competitive pay, quality benefits for employees and their families, ample time off, flexible work arrangements to encourage work-life balance, and extensive professional development opportunities.
“This achievement reflects our commitment to creating an inclusive environment where every Team Member can thrive,” said Amy Proctor, Senior Vice President of Logistics Solutions at Trinity. “We continue to empower our Team to reach new heights. In my own journey here, I’ve seen firsthand how our culture of collaboration and growth makes a real difference. The opportunities for leadership development, mentorship, and professional growth have shaped my career and allowed me to contribute in meaningful ways. It’s inspiring to see the impact women have across our company and I’m proud to be part of a Team that champions opportunity for all.”
To date, Trinity employs over 400 Team Members across six Regional Service Centers, with more than half of them being women. Notably, 16.7 percent of these women hold management or leadership roles, including the current President, Sarah Ruffcorn, who also serves as co-chair on the Women in Logistics Committee with the Transportation Intermediaries Association (TIA).
“We’re incredibly honored to receive this award for a 6th year!” said Sarah Ruffcorn, President of Trinity Logistics. “This achievement reflects our amazing Team that continues to live and create a culture in which anyone can thrive. We’re proud of our efforts to continuously offer a supportive environment, ensuring our Team Members have the opportunity to succeed and grow.”
Trinity Logistics thanks WIT for the recognition and wants to congratulate all the companies that made the list.
