About Us
Since 1945, U-Haul has been serving do-it-yourself movers and their households. Like many other successful ventures, the concept for U-Haul was generated out of need. After World War II, there existed the widespread need for do-it-yourself moving equipment that would be available on a one-way, nationwide basis.
U-Haul co-founders L.S. "Sam" Shoen and his wife, Anna Mary Carty Shoen, recognized that need and acted upon it. Their visionary approach spread the cost of ownership among many users, facilitating the mobility of the populations of the U.S. and Canada. The covered wagon of the pioneers morphed into orange U-Haul trailers. In the process, an industry was born.
U-Haul Holding Company and its family of companies, including U-Haul, have strived to create a culture of health and wellness. As of February 1, 2020, and consistent with applicable law, no U-Haul Holding Company or its family of companies will hire individuals in states where it may lawfully decline to hire individuals who use nicotine products (Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Hawaii, Idaho, Iowa, Kansas, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Nebraska, Pennsylvania, Texas, Utah, Vermont, Virginia and Washington).

Tips for Your Relief Manager Job Search
Tailor your resume to coverage depth
Relief managers are hired to stabilize operations fast, so your resume needs to show how many locations you've covered, the volume you managed, and how quickly you got up to speed at each site. Vague ownership claims won't cut it here.
Apply early to roles that fit
Migrate Mate lists relief manager openings from across the United States in one place, so you can find roles that match and apply directly to each listing.
Highlight cross-format operational experience
Employers want relief managers who've run different store sizes, service models, or team structures without a ramp-up period. Call out every format variation you've managed, whether that's a flagship versus a strip-mall location or a union versus non-union team.
Target postings with multi-unit language
Job titles vary wildly: traveling manager, interim manager, and floating manager all describe the same function. Search those alternate titles too so you don't miss openings that match your background but use different wording.
Prepare a site-readiness story for interviews
Interviewers for relief roles will push you on how you assess a location in the first few hours. Rehearse a specific example where you walked into an unfamiliar site, identified the biggest operational gap, and fixed it without disrupting the team.
Negotiate travel and housing terms upfront
Relief roles often include per diem, mileage reimbursement, or temporary housing allowances that aren't listed in the base offer. Clarify the full compensation structure before you accept, because these terms vary significantly by company and region.
Relief Manager Jobs: Frequently Asked Questions
Which companies are hiring the most relief managers?
The companies hiring the most relief managers right now include Keurig Dr Pepper, U-Haul, and ABARTA Coca-Cola Beverages, with the largest share of openings in Texas, Arizona, and Pennsylvania, based on current listings on Migrate Mate as of November 2026. Retail chains, restaurant groups, and regional healthcare operators tend to post the highest volume of these roles.
How many relief manager jobs are remote?
About 33% of relief manager openings are fully remote or hybrid as of November 2026, which is lower than most management roles because the position is built around physical site coverage. The sub-areas most compatible with remote work are administrative coordination, scheduling oversight, and regional reporting for multi-unit groups.
How do you become a relief manager?
Start by building a foundation as an assistant manager or shift supervisor at a location where you can demonstrate you run operations independently. From there, pursue a lateral move into a traveling or floating manager role at a company with multiple locations. Most employers want candidates who have managed at least one full site on their own before taking on a coverage role.
Can you get hired as a relief manager with little experience?
It's possible if you've managed a single location well and can show you adapt quickly to new teams and environments. Focus your applications on smaller regional chains rather than national operators, since they often promote from within and are more willing to train a first-time relief manager. Volunteering to cover shifts at other locations in your current job is the fastest way to build that credential.
What does the relief manager interview process look like?
Most relief manager interviews run two to three rounds. The first is typically a phone screen focused on your travel availability and location experience. A second round with a district or regional manager will test your situational judgment with scenario questions about walking into an underperforming site. Some companies add a final conversation with HR to review compensation structure and territory expectations.
Where can I find and apply to relief manager jobs?
You can find and apply to relief manager jobs on Migrate Mate, which lists current openings from across the United States in one place. Search for roles that match your industry background and territory preference, then apply directly to each listing that fits your experience and availability.
