The Truckload Carriers Association (TCA) is on the hunt for a new president, after the planned retirement of current president Jim Ward.
Ward is planning to step down within the coming months, TCA said, adding in a release that “his retirement is the culmination of a thoughtful succession process and a distinguished career of service to the trucking industry.”
Ward served as TCA president since 2022.
“This decision has been in the works for some time, and I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve accomplished together,” he said in a press release. “TCA is strong, its future is bright, and I look forward to watching the association continue to grow and flourish in the years ahead.”
TCA has established a search committee to find Ward’s replacement.
“Jim’s leadership has had a lasting impact on TCA and the entire truckload industry,” said Karen Smerchek, TCA chairwoman and president of Veriha Trucking. “This transition reflects the next step in a carefully considered succession plan, and we are deeply grateful for the stability and strength Jim has brought to the association.”
