Facilitating Lucrative Transactions With
Guaranteed Confidentiality From Day One with Robins Consulting
In the transportation sector, premature news of a sale triggers immediate driver flight, lender panic, and competitor poaching. Robins Consulting handles your exit with full discretion.
No public listing
We never post your company on public transaction boards. We take your business directly to vetted, capable buyers.
Comprehensive NDAs
We require comprehensive non-disclosure agreements before sharing a single piece of your operational data.
Quiet Outreach
We manage the information flow tightly so your employees, customers, and competitors never know you are exploring a sale until the deal is done.
Robins Consulting CEO Vetting Process
We don't scan resumes for generic keywords. We vet every CEO candidate through rigorous, peer-level operational parameters:
P&L Capital Allocation
We analyze your fleet assets, lane yields, driver pools, and customer concentration to establish a high-market valuation that reflects your true worth.
Operating Ratio & Yield
We skip the tire-kickers. We leverage our private network to target active private equity groups and strategic buyers who have the actual capital to close.
Safety & Litigation Mitigation
The highest price doesn't matter if the terms are bad. We aggressively negotiate non-competes, escrow terms, and tax mitigation strategies to protect your actual payout.
Driver & Workforce Retention
We manage the moving parts between buyers, attorneys, lenders, and accountants so you can continue running your operations at peak performance.
Corporate Professionalization
We do not charge upfront retainers or administrative fees. Our complete financial alignment means we only get paid when your transaction successfully closes.

I have worked with Robins Consulting since 2012. They save me time by quickly delivering top talent for my hard to fill positions. They are my competitive edge.
I had the pleasure of working with Craig during my recent career transition. Craig worked tirelessly on my behalf and due to his unwavering focus; "we" successfully landed a life-changing position. Thanks for your guidance, coaching and steady-hand, Craig. I appreciate all your help!
Craig served as the executive recruiter who helped successfully lead me through the recruitment process leading to an executive position at Swift Transportation. Craig was honest, direct, well organized, and followed through on commitments he made to me. He helped me understand the requirements and skills neccessary to succeed in the role he was recruiting to fill, provided exposure to key leaders, and helped me understand the culture of the company.
I reached out to Craig to gain insight on a project I was working on. Craig was a great resource and most willing to help me understand a market I was just discovering. Craig helped me recruit an experienced trucking executive to assume the President role of Chesapeake Energy’s new Trucking Division. I really appreciate the help Craig provided and would recommend him without hesitation.
I worked with Craig on a daily basis for over a decade at Stevens Transport. He was my Vice President of Human Resources. He helped me grow my company by recruiting experienced candidates for every department. We called him again in mid-2016 to recruit an experienced Vice President of Administration, Director of Maintenance and a Director of Safety. Craig continues to deliver solid results for us.
Hands down, the best Executive Recruiter I've ever worked with. Craig is driven, well connected, and extremely experienced at what he does. I highly recommend working with him
Thank you Craig, for identifying and successfully recruiting our Executive Vice President of Intermodal. He’s been a fantastic addition to our Executive Team!
