Our People
At J.B. Hunt, our people come first. Our people-first commitment was originally instilled into our company culture by our founders, Johnnie Bryan and Johnelle Hunt. From the beginning, our founders knew that investing in our people was vital to our company’s success.
We strive to build a J.B. Hunt where our people feel supported and valued. To do this we know that it’s not enough to just invest in our people while they are at work, but we also need to support our people in their personal lives, too. We try to achieve this through our holistic employee benefits, retirement savings plans, scholarship programs and more.
Professionally, J.B. Hunt provides training programs, such as our Technician Career Advancement Program, to equip our people with the tools they need to advance their careers. We also invest in the latest safety technologies and protocols to keep our people safe while on the road and off. We make sure to recognize and celebrate our people for their achievements.
By investing in our people and making sure they are taken care of, we empower them to take great care of our customers. Through our proprietary Customer Value Delivery® (CVD) methodology and with more than 60 years of industry experience behind them, our people create custom supply chain solutions for our customers that fit their unique business needs and create long-term value. Our people are what make up the iconic J.B. Hunt scroll. Our customers trust our brand because they trust our people.
