Job description

Freight Agent (1099) | Build Your Business with Freight Flex


You're not looking for another brokerage. You're looking for the right partner.


At Freight Flex, we believe the best agency relationships are built for the long haul. We're not interested in signing the most agents, we're focused on partnering with experienced freight professionals we can invest in, support, and help grow for years to come.


As a Freight Flex Agent, you'll operate your own business with the freedom of true ownership while backed by an experienced team that understands what it takes to build a successful agency. From operations and compliance to accounting, collections, and carrier development, our goal is simple: give you the resources to spend more time growing your business.


Whether your vision is to remain a high-performing solo agent or build the next great freight agency, we're here to help make that happen.


What You'll Do


  • Build, manage, and grow your own book of business

  • Develop long-term relationships with shippers and carriers

  • Quote, negotiate, and execute freight across multiple modes

  • Manage freight from pickup through delivery with operational support available when needed

  • Deliver exceptional customer service that drives repeat business

  • Work alongside our Agent Success, Operations, Finance, and Compliance teams

  • Follow industry-leading carrier onboarding and compliance standards to protect your customers and business


What We're Looking For


  • Previous experience as a freight broker, freight agent, or logistics sales professional

  • Existing customer relationships or book of business preferred

  • Strong understanding of freight brokerage operations and market dynamics

  • Self-motivated with an entrepreneurial mindset

  • High level of professionalism, integrity, and accountability

  • Someone looking to build a lasting business, not simply collect a commission check


Why Freight Flex?

True Agency Freedom


  • 70/30 commission split

  • Transparent commission structure with payouts every two weeks

  • You own your customers and your book of business

  • No exclusivity requirements


A Team Invested in Your Success

At Freight Flex, support isn't just a department, it's part of our culture.


Our experienced Agent Success Team, Operations professionals, Compliance specialists, and Accounting team work alongside you every day to remove obstacles so you can focus on growing your business.


Whether you need help onboarding a new customer, solving an operational challenge, or scaling your agency, you'll have experienced people in your corner.


Financial Stability You Can Trust


  • Self-funded company with no factoring

  • Strong credit reputation throughout the industry

  • Credit insurance protecting our agency partners

  • Financial strength that helps you win and retain customers


Technology That Works For You


  • Robust transportation management system (TMS)

  • Industry-leading carrier compliance and fraud prevention

  • Market visibility and operational tools included

  • Technology designed to support growth, not create more work


More Than an Agency Program

We believe great partnerships are built through trust, transparency, and shared success.


That's why every prospective agent goes through a thoughtful evaluation process with our leadership team. We take the time to understand your business, your goals, and your vision so we can be confident we're the right fit for one another.


When our agents succeed, Freight Flex succeeds.


If you're an experienced freight professional looking for a true agency partner, not just another logo on your business card, we'd love to have a conversation.
