Job description

With the continued growth in the industry, Scotlynn is currently hiring sales representatives, referred to as Logistics Account Managers. This position is for aspiring sales professionals who are driven, hardworking, and looking for unlimited growth.

Sales experience and supply-chain experience is NOT a requirement; we look for attitude and work ethic.

ABOUT US

Scotlynn is a multinational produce grower and transportation provider specializing in time-sensitive refrigerated products. Every aspect of our operation highlights our passion for doing it better – our attention to detail, our open communication, our state-of-the-art equipment, and our comprehensive farming procedures.

WHAT WE OFFER

• 6-8 months of salaried training and mentoring program
• Uncapped-commissioned sales after training
• Our top Account Managers earned over $300,000 last year
• Competitive Benefits Plan and Employee and Family Assistance Plan
• $41,600 annual salary before commission
• Full gym access with personal trainer
• Corporate chef providing healthy meal options
• Opportunities to strengthen local communities through “Community Volunteer Program” initiatives
• Rewarding, collaborative and lively workplace culture

THE ROLE

You will begin in a training role and learn all aspects of the industry. This training will help you develop skills to separate you from the competition. As you become more knowledgeable, you will begin to pursue your own clients and successfully manage the movement of their freight. You will handle every aspect of your own accounts and act as the lead contact regarding their 24/7/365 transportation needs. The Logistics Account Manager role provides the opportunity to carve your financial freedom through unlimited earning potential.

Our pay structure is designed to support you as you build your book of business. During the first 6–8 months, you will receive a training salary. This period allows you to gain the necessary knowledge and skills to excel in your role. As you build your client base and your commission earnings start to outweigh the training salary, you will transition to a 100% uncapped commission-based pay structure. This ensures that your earning potential directly reflects your hard work and success. Scotlynn provides you with all the training and tools necessary to be successful in your role.

This role could also be known as Inside Sales Representative, Sales Agent, Account Manager, or Account Representative.
