In our periodic evaluations of our long term strategy for continued growth Somerset has initiated several changes. The changes involve Brandon Ward and Samantha Whitesell. Recently, Brandon and Sam have been given new job titles and responsibilities. Brandon Ward. Brandon has been promoted to Vice President of Operations for Somerset Logistics. Brandon has performed a myriad of functions for Somerset, first as an account/sales manager, agent recruiter and later as the Director of Business Development. Brandon is a TIA Certified Transportation Broker (CTB) and has been with the company for nearly 10 years. His new title and role describes his daily responsibilities as well as his future with Somerset. Brandon will be over all Somerset operations to include being involved in strategic growth initiatives. His importance to the organization is invaluable and we are excited for him to continue in his new position of leadership with Somerset Logistics. Samantha Whitesell. Samantha will be assuming a new title as Support Specialist with Somerset. She has been with Somerset for 5 years, is a CTB, and fully understands all facets of the transportation industry. Sam will be the "go to" person for all our outside offices. She will provide oversight on Somerset's Onboarding initiative as well as provide support and assistance with carrier registration and relations. She will be involved in claims management, customer verification, agent recruitment as well as other necessary support functions. Lastly, Sam will be added to our after hours support team in being available to provide assistance outside of normal business hours. Sam has a deep drive and desire to help those who need assistance. She is excited about her new role and will be reaching out to all of you in the near future to introduce herself and ensure you know she is available if you need any assistance. In closing, Somerset believes that both of these individuals are an important part of our company and future growth. Not only are their new titles and responsibilities deserving, they are necessary as our company continues to grow and evolve. They along with other various support staff from accounting to operational personnel strive to provide the best support possible for all our customers. posted by test @ 2:32 PM Friday, May 27, 2016 Memorial Day As we approach Memorial Day it is a time to reflect on those that gave the ultimate sacrifice to their country. As a country and individually we at Somerset ask others to think about the magnitude of the sacrifice and the magnitude of our nation's loss. As we think about the many white markers in cemeteries around the world we understand not only the loss of those individuals, but the impact. Behind every simple white marker is a parent that lost a child, a brother or sister that lost a sibling, a wife that lost a partner, a son or daughter who lost a parent, birthdays that were never celebrated, degrees that were never achieved, dreams that were never realized and the list goes on and on. We at Somerset invite you to join us, to reflect on these many sacrifices. To close, we believe an inscription from the Luxembourg American Cemetery pretty well sums up what Memorial Day is all about. An inscription attributed to General Eisenhower that states, "All who shall hereafter live in freedom will be here reminded that to these men and their comrades we owe a debt to be paid with grateful remembrance of their sacrifice and with high resolve that the cause for which they died shall live eternally." May God bless our fallen, their families and all who serve and may he continue to bless the United States of America. posted by test @ 1:15 PM Monday, March 7, 2016 Somerset Logistics and Middle Tennessee State University Student Internship Opportunities On February 24th Somerset Logistics participated in MTSU's Internship Fair.
