Transportation Jobs in Georgia

Transportation hiring in Georgia: the current picture

There are 312 transportation openings in Georgia. Employers added at least 64 new transportation postings in Georgia in the past week — an unusually active market, with a fifth or more of all listings arriving in the last seven days.

No single employer dominates — the three biggest recruiters (Ryder, Domino's Pizza, Lowes) together hold only about 27% of listings. Atlanta has the deepest pool (33 openings), followed by Savannah (16) and Newnan (15). Of postings that specify a schedule, 74% are full-time, 26% part-time. Fully remote transportation roles are essentially absent from this market — this is primarily in-person work.

Posted pay in Georgia roughly mirrors the national picture — 5% of salaried postings advertise $100K or more, versus 7% nationwide. The median posted salary is about $37,000 here, compared with roughly $46,000 across all states.

For context beyond current listings: the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics estimates the average annual wage for transportation and material moving occupations in Georgia at $53,000 (median $42,000) as of May 2025. Posted salaries on new openings here currently run below that benchmark — entry-level and high-turnover roles tend to dominate fresh postings. Source: BLS Occupational Employment and Wage Statistics.
