Penske Continues Upward Hiring Trend in 2012

Penske Truck Leasing and Penske Logistics plan to hire approximately 3,500 associates within their North American operations throughout 2012.


Penske’s promising hiring outlook stems from the increasing demand for its services as the transportation sector continues to recover. Planned hiring is in line with 2011 hiring, which exceeded internal expectations by 74 percent over 2010 due to industry demand.

“We’re pleased to continue this positive hiring trend at our North American operations in 2012,” said Ken Hurley, senior vice president of human resources for Penske Truck Leasing. “We look forward to adding new associates to our talented, diverse team.”

Penske Truck Leasing and Penske Logistics anticipate finding qualified candidates for the following positions: vehicle maintenance supervisors, technicians; customer service; sales; drivers; and logistics and supply chain positions.

Penske plans to promote open positions through various online hiring and social media sites; career fairs at diesel technical/trade schools and colleges and universities; diversity career fairs; and military job fairs.
