Kirkland earned his B.S.B.A. in management information systems from Walton College in 1999. He started at J.B. Hunt in 1999 in the Dedicated Contract Services division. In 2009, Kirkland went to work for Liquidity Services, Inc., and in 2011 he began working at Transplace. He was there until 2012 when he returned to J.B. Hunt as director of transportation for the Integrated Capacity Solutions group.
“As our customers’ supply chains become more complex, information technology becomes just as important as pricing and service levels within the industry,” Kirkland said. “Customers expect and deserve fast and easy access to information to help them analyze and support the decisions they make every day. J.B. Hunt invests in both the people and systems needed to make this possible.”
