Chris Henry Named Vice President of Customer Experience & Recognition Programs for CarriersEdge
NEWMARKET, Ontario, July 15, 2020 – CarriersEdge, a leading provider of online driver training for the trucking industry, has named Chris Henry as its vice president of customer experience & recognition programs.
Henry, who has spent his entire 20-year career working in the transportation industry, has held several leadership roles, including vice president, general manager, and partner at NAL Insurance; and co-founder and president of StakUp, a provider of online motor carrier benchmarking services. Most recently, Henry served dual positions as program manager for the Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) Profitability Program and vice president of Carrier Profitability for FreightWaves after FreightWaves acquired StakUp in 2019.
As vice president of customer experience & recognition programs with CarriersEdge, Henry will oversee all aspects of customer support and partner relations, including onboarding, technical support, channel management, and product integration.
“CarriersEdge has consistently demonstrated an ‘under promise, over deliver’ business model, focused on high quality learning and development solutions,” said Henry. “Having watched their growth, and the growth of the Best Fleets to Drive For program for over a decade now, I’m very excited to have the opportunity to be part of the CarriersEdge team, and aid our carrier clients and partners in developing high performing, diverse and fulfilled workforces. Further, via Best Fleets, I will be able to continue recognizing carriers, throughout North America, that go above and beyond, and giving them the credit they deserve.”
In addition to supporting CarriersEdge customers and partners, Henry will manage a dedicated team of staff members who will be responsible for organizing the Best Fleets to Drive For program. Produced by CarriersEdge, in partnership with TCA, the Best Fleets to Drive For program is an annual survey and contest that identifies the for-hire carriers providing the best workplace experience for their drivers.
According to Jane Jazrawy, CarriersEdge co-founder and CEO, Henry’s diverse industry experience will allow Henry to quickly transition into his new role with CarriersEdge.
“We are thrilled to bring Chris on as our vice president of customer experience & recognition programs,” said Jazrawy. “Chris’ experience working with fleets across North America, as well as his success with StakUp and work with the TCA Profitability Program, makes him a perfect fit to support our customers and partners, and expand the Best Fleets to Drive For program. Chris will be a great asset for us.”
