Frequently Asked Questions

Why should I join the Granite Logistics team?

There are many reasons to join Granite Logistics, but among the best is the chance to be part of building something special. In just seven years, Granite has gone from a startup to a flatbed/specialized powerhouse with over $100 million in annual billings. Our team is among the best in this business, and we’re still just getting started. If you want to be part of a winning team doing great things, join us as we build one of Minnesota’s next great growth companies.

What’s the culture like at Granite Logistics?

We take great pride in our culture, and work hard to maintain it. The wall on our sales floor even boldly proclaims: Culture Matters. Our people are driven, passionate, motivated, and love what they do. They enjoy great latitude and freedom in getting the job done. The environment is fast-paced and energetic. We win a lot, and like celebrating those wins. If you enjoy working hard but having fun while doing it, you’ll fit in here.

I don’t have any experience in transportation/logistics. Does that matter?

In a word, no. Everybody was new to this business at one point. If you have that background that’s great, we’ll help you build on it. But if not, we’re happy to teach you the industry. Logistics is one of the largest industries in the nation, and it’s growing fast. This is an industry where you can build a career, and your efforts are rewarded as your experience and value increase. Your attitude and willingness to learn are more important than previous experience.

What exactly would I do?

It depends on whether you join our Sales or Operations teams. If you’re in Sales, your job will be to build relationships with shipping customers across the country who move flatbed/oversized freight. This is done primarily over the phone, and early on you will be on the phone a lot as you build up your customer base. You will provide quotes, act as an adviser, build loads, and coordinate with our Operations team. Your ultimate goal is to build the relationship so the customer comes to trust us and relies on us for an increasing share of their business. The more freight you book, the more you earn.

If you’re part of our Operations team, you’ll be working with carriers around the country to get our customers’ freight moved. You’ll be part of one of our regional teams, and assigned freight you’re responsible for covering. You will negotiate rates and then work with drivers until the load is safely delivered. Our Operations team is a very collaborative environment, and the better the team does, the better the bonus each month.

What benefits does the company offer?

As a service business, our success is entirely dependent on our people, and we offer a benefits package that helps us attract the best people. For starters, Granite Logistics offers two health plans—a traditional deductible/co-pay plan, and an HSA. For each plan, Granite picks up 70% of the cost, and the employee is responsible for 30%. The following are offered to all employees at no expense to them: dental, life, short-term and long-term disability. Granite also offers a 401k plan that matches up to 6% of pay. PTO is determined by length of tenure. And perhaps our best perk? If the company achieves its annual goal, all employees who worked the full year get to take a winter vacation for them and a guest at company expense.

Is Granite involved in the community?

We are. Granite is proud to call Central Minnesota home, and happy to support this community. Granite has been a sponsor of CentraCare’s Holly Ball, the Toast to Autumn hosted by Sartell-St. Stephen Education Foundation, and the United Way’s Midnight Run. We also support the YMCA, Habitat for Humanity, Girl Scouts, Central Minnesota Community Foundation, and Junior Achievement, among many others. We’re also honored to be the primary benefactor of the Granite Logistics Resource Center within the Sartell Community Center.

Where are you located?

Granite Logistics has two convenient locations. Our headquarters office is in Sartell, near Pinecone Rd and County Road 120, just north of StaFit. We also have an office in downtown Minneapolis, located in the Fifth Street Towers. Whether you enjoy the more relaxed lifestyle of Central Minnesota or the buzz of life in the big city, we have an office for you.
