• Pipeline Development: Research and profile potential sales targets to evaluate leads and build a self-sourced pipeline, using cold calling, prospecting, and field sales activity to initiate contact and assess customer needs.

• Product and Competitive Expertise: Maintain a thorough understanding of company products and services, competitor positioning, and industry standards, and use that knowledge to position Knight-Swift effectively.
• Issue Resolution: Troubleshoot and resolve issues that arise during the sales process to ensure a smooth transaction and a positive customer experience through onboarding.
• Knowledge Leadership: Serve as a subject matter resource to the Business Development team, providing informal guidance, deal support, and knowledge sharing to less experienced Sales Executives.
• CRM Management: Maintain meticulous records of all sales activity, client communication, and pipeline stage management within the CRM system (e.g., HubSpot).
• Market Strategy: Provide valuable market feedback and competitive insights to the Marketing team to help drive leads, working closely with Marketing for strategic alignment.
