Benefits Management
We believe in offering comprehensive benefits that go above and beyond the basics. All of the teams within benefits management are dedicated to providing any necessary assistance, addressing unique needs that might pop up and ensuring that employees feel supported in every aspect of their life.
Derrick, a benefits case manager, and Loree, a benefits manager II, understand that their role in benefits management extends beyond supporting J.B. Hunt employees—it also impacts our employees’ families. While they are well-equipped to assist with the essentials, such as establishing insurance and setting up a 401(k), their support is able to go much further.
This team is dedicated to helping employees with a wide range of challenges that might pop up, from resolving pharmacy issues to providing assistance when employees’ families face things like natural disasters. Regardless of whatever obstacles work or life may bring, you can count on the People Team to provide the support that you need.
“The People Team has a huge hand in fostering company culture here at J.B. Hunt. We’re able to shape a lot of employees’ experiences and make it as smooth as possible for them.”
Derrick, Benefits Case Manager
People Relations
As part of our People Relations team, we have groups that handle military relations, inclusion strategy and business partnership. These groups are focused on listening and improving the daily work life of employees by interacting with them and using employee ideas that make us all better.
As a part of our People Relations team, Sadonta, inclusion partner I, and his Inclusion Strategy teammates focus on creating a space where current and future employees can feel welcomed, valued, respected, safe and heard. Because a workplace that is innovative and inclusive makes everyone more successful.
“The People Team helps embed J.B. Hunt’s core values by ensuring that they’re reflected within all areas of the workplace.”
Sadonta, Inclusion Partner I
Talent Management
Our Talent Management team is made up of several groups, all focused on recruiting and retaining top talent and helping our people grow the way they want to in their careers. Matthew, an employee listening analyst III, plays a key role in this team by gathering and analyzing employee feedback. Gathered through surveys and feedback, the team uses this valuable information to enhance processes such as onboarding, strengthen inclusion efforts and make larger improvements that ultimately drive even more value for our customers.
“I have the ability to make an impact on people’s lives by just being able to just listen to them, hopefully improve their work, make their work lives easier, make their culture better. So, that really drives me.”
Matthew, Employee Listening Analyst III
Our People Team supports our employees in every aspect of their careers. Whether they are assisting with benefits, seeing employees through difficult times or helping employees feel less alone in their careers, our People Team is Driven For You™.
