Former USA Truck executive Joseph Kaiser is the new chief financial officer at Xpress Global Systems of Chattanooga, Tennessee.
Kaiser left USA Truck in April when the company promoted Zachary King to vice president and corporate controller. King joined the company in 2015 and served a variety of positions, including assistant controller.
Kaiser was named vice president and chief accounting officer in 2016 and served as principal financial officer between the tenures of former CFOs Michael Borrows and James Reed. Kaiser earned total compensation of $419,424 in 2016.
(Borrows resigned from USA Truck in May 2016 and Reed was hired Nov. 1. Reed has since been promoted to CEO since the resignation of Randy Rogers, and USA Truck announced the hiring of James Bates as CFO on April 19.)
Kaiser’s departure also affected the Arkansas Trucking Association, where he was chairman of the Accounting & Finance Council. The ATA created the AFC at its last conference.
Vice Chairman Eric Grant of Maverick Transportation gave the council’s report at this year’s conference, held in early May, and was named council chairman.
