The bulk of your day will involve direct communication with existing and potential clients, so freight knowledge and excellent communication skills is a must.

Your primary responsibility will be to identify and secure profitable new business opportunities within your territory.

• Build, track, and maintain a strong sales pipeline.
• Independently drive new sales while achieving and exceeding targets.

• While primarily a hunting role, retention and relationship management of existing clients are also key.
• Leverage both traditional and digital tools to connect with prospects and current customers.
• Prepare customer quotes based on profiles, shipment history, and internal pricing resources.
• Work closely with internal teams on pricing, strategy, and administrative needs.
• Maintain accurate records and updates in Salesforce daily.

Qualifications:

• Minimum 2-3 years of sales experience, ideally in transportation, logistics, or supply chain. Other industry sales experience will be considered.
• Must have strong communications and be comfortable interacting with customers over the phone & email.
• Strong understanding of the sales process with a proven ability to generate revenue and retain customers.
• Ability to quickly create opportunities through phone outreach and client engagement.
• Bachelor’s Degree preferred but not required.
• Resilient, competitive, and confident in making cold calls.
• Quick thinking with strong adaptability to client needs.
• Experience with Salesforce or similar platforms is an asset.
• Positive, can-do attitude with a collaborative mindset.
• Ability to multitask in a fast-paced environment with strong attention to detail.
• Ability to prioritize and stay focused in a busy setting.
