WHY CHOOSE KIRK
On top of our aggressive compensation and benefits packages, Kirk NationaLease also values the unique perspectives and experiences of our employees and customers.
We are committed to fostering an inclusive culture that enables everyone who touches our business to thrive and contribute to our success.
We believe that a respectful and supportive environment creates an engaged and empowered team who is committed to delivering results for the business.
STRAIGHT FROM THE TEAM
At Kirk NationaLease, we value our mechanics as individuals, not just as numbers. We’re committed to helping our team members develop their skills and grow within the company. Our long-standing tradition of promoting from within is a testament to this commitment, with the owner of Kirk NL himself starting as a mechanic on the shop floor in 1979 and working his way up to ownership in 2008 after serving as the maintenance manager.
We also have a Regional Manager who joined us right out of Tech school in 1976 and is still with us today. These success stories are just a few examples of the many opportunities for career advancement at Kirk NationaLease.
But don’t just take our word for it. Here’s what some of our current employees have to say:
“I started with Kirk NationaLease several years ago just out of Lincoln Tech with no experience. With many opportunities, challenges, and support from the great people here, I have progressed within the company. Now 47 years later it has been quite an experience.”
I have been with Kirk since I retired from the US Army over 8 years ago. I started out as a Trailer Technician and have worked my way up to Shop Manager. I enjoy the company and the great employees who make work enjoyable. If you are a person with a good work ethic, motivated, willing to learn, and looking for a great company, come check us out!
“When I interviewed at Kirk NationaLease I had a little experience from school and I was nervous about being able to do my job. Being a female in the technician field has been hard and not a lot of companies are willing to take a chance in you. I was grateful when Kirk decided to take a chance on me. I have had several opportunities were I was able to expand my knowledge and work on many different trucks, hy-rails, and trailers. I like that there is an expanded training program so I can use to keep learning.”
