We're particularly interested in candidates with road freight or logistics experience, especially those who already understand the transport industry and have an established knowledge of how road freight works.
However, logistics experience isn't essential. If you have a strong sales background, a proven ability to win new business and the drive to succeed, we'd love to hear from you.
We're looking for someone who is:
- Confident and professional when dealing with customers
- Driven, ambitious and motivated by earning potential
- Comfortable generating new business and making sales
- Excellent at building and maintaining customer relationships
- Organised and able to manage multiple customers and bookings
- A strong communicator with good negotiation skills
- Commercially minded and target\-driven
- A team player who wants to develop their career
- Previous road freight/logistics experience is highly desirable
- Previous B2B sales experience is highly desirable
We believe in rewarding people who work hard and deliver results.
- £35,000\+ basic salary, depending on experience
- Highly lucrative, uncapped commission/bonus structure
- No ceiling on your earning potential
- Full\-time, permanent position
- Exciting progression and career development opportunities
- Free gym membership
- Christmas closure
- 28 days holiday including bank holidays
- A growing company where your contribution can have a genuine impact
- The opportunity to build and manage your own customer portfolio
- A supportive team environment with plenty of opportunity to develop
This isn't just a role where you'll be expected to make calls and hit a sales target.
You'll have the opportunity to build your own portfolio of customers, develop valuable commercial relationships and grow with the business.
For the right person, there is significant opportunity to progress within the company, both in terms of responsibility and earning potential.
If you're an experienced logistics salesperson looking for your next challenge — or an ambitious salesperson looking to build a career in the freight industry — we want to hear from you.
