COOKEVILLE, Tenn. – Averitt has promoted Randy McCorkle to vice president of sales for the Kentucky, Arkansas, and Oklahoma area. He succeeds Jeff Edwards, who was promoted to vice president of truckload sales late last year.
McCorkle began his career with Averitt in 1994 as a part-time associate in Bowling Green while attending Western Kentucky University. Two years later, he was promoted to frontline leader, supporting both outbound and inbound operations before moving into a sales role in 2003. McCorkle also served as service center director in Bowling Green, director of corporate business development, and, recently, as the director of Dedicated sales.
“Randy’s career reflects both his leadership ability and our commitment to developing talent from within,” said Kent Williams, executive vice president of sales and marketing at Averitt. “His experience across operations and sales gives him a strong understanding of how our network works together to support customers, and we’re confident he’s ready to lead this area forward.”
