Assistant Controller

Help Build the Financial Foundation of One of the Fastest Growing Transportation Companies in the Pacific Northwest.

At Jacko Logistics, we're not just moving freight, we're building something special. As a trusted transportation partner and the proud recipient of Pepsi's 2025 Carrier of the Year
, we've grown our fleet from approximately 170 trucks to more than 250
, with plans to exceed 300 trucks in the near future. As we continue to scale, we're looking for an Assistant Controller who wants to roll up their sleeves, take ownership, and help build a best‑in‑class accounting function.
