  • Someone who's confident speaking to clients and understands how to uncover their real logistics challenges
  • A natural relationship-builder who can close deals without the hard sell
  • Organised, self-motivated, and comfortable managing your own diary
  • A full UK driving licence (or equivalent) — you'll be out and about!
