Jen

Jen is a top-performing driver at Roberge Transport. She is a mother of two, an entrepreneur, and a hardworking independent driver.

For 18 years, Jen drove in the oilfield to support her family. Needing a change, she switched to hauling livestock for Roberge Transport last year.. and has never looked back.

Although she is a female operating in a very male-dominated industry, she hasn’t let it slow her down. Jen has taken it upon herself to gain industry knowledge and a support system. One of her favourite things about her job is listening to the nostalgic stories of drivers who live and breathe this industry. It’s a great opportunity to learn from their past mistakes and triumphs. “I wouldn’t have gotten where I am today without the men in this company sharing their knowledge and support,” explains Jen.

Dedication coupled with a willingness to learn has accelerated Jen to a successful career. She’s not afraid to get her hands dirty, makes modifications when necessary, and she has created a solid network to help her feel supported along the way.

“This job is 100 percent here for you to succeed if it’s something you ‘want’ to do,” says Jen. “Choose the right company to have as your support system, a company that treats their employees well and equally; that way, you will have a better shot at making it and it could be one of the best jobs you’ve ever had.”
