The Women In Trucking Association (WIT) has announced Christine Iva Britton as its March 2025 Member of the Month. Britton is a professional driver for Premier Truck Group.
Britton was naturally drawn to anything with a motor and wheels as far back as she can remember. Foreshadowing her career, growing up, her father ran a Husqvarna saw shop behind Jubitz Truck Stop which is merely a stone’s throw away from the Freightliner dealership where she has been employed for the past 10 years.
“The trucking industry was always coming and going in the backyard of my pre-CDL life,” said Britton. “I had stars in my eyes pretty early on and eventually went to IITR Trucking Driving School to make it official.”
Starting her career at Premier Truck Group in October of 2014, Britton is dispatched by the entire dealership which includes new and used sales, collision and service departments. She assists management, service technicians, service writers and foremen with diagnostic feedback providing customer service excellence.
Her recognitions include being named one of Premier Truck Group’s 2024 Winning Women, winning the Premier Truck Group’s Safety Excellence Coin #056 and a Jubitz Truck Light Parade honorable mention.
For other women within the industry or those looking to enter it, Britton has some enthusiastic advice saying, “Do it. Always trust your intuition, be patient with yourself, believe in your greatness, be bold and communicate with confidence. Support, don’t compete, and make a great playlist to get through it and get over it.”
