Sales Executive - Freight & Logistics
If you're confident on the phone, love making connections, and want to earn what you're worth - this one's for you.
Our client is a well-established, fast-growing freight forwarding business with roots going back nearly 30 years. Family-owned but far from old-fashioned, they combine a strong reputation in the logistics industry with a progressive, people-first culture. Their team is friendly, agile and committed, and now they're looking to bring in a Sales Executive who's as ambitious as they are.
This is a genuine opportunity to join a thriving business during a key phase of expansion. You'll be working with a huge bank of warm leads, many of which are from previous clients or active prospects, so you won't be stuck in a cold-calling wilderness but make no mistake, this is a high-energy role. You'll need drive, tenacity, and a strong phone presence. If you love talking, connecting, and closing, you'll love this job.
What You'll Be Doing:
- Contacting warm leads (and some colder ones) from an extensive in-house database built over 10+ years.
- Making outbound calls to introduce the company's logistics services (Road, Sea, Air, and Express).
- Following up on quotes and reactivating old accounts.
- Researching new prospects and identifying decision-makers.
- Converting interest into clients through phone, email, LinkedIn, and face-to-face meetings.
- Updating the CRM with activity and outcomes.
What They're Looking For:
- A natural communicator - confident, chatty, and great on the phone.
- Resilient, persistent, and not afraid of a few knock-backs.
- Self-motivated and target-driven (this is a commission-based role - you'll need to be hungry).
- Able to understand client needs and offer tailored solutions.
- Someone who enjoys the buzz of sales and thrives in a fast-paced, team-oriented environment.
What's In It For You?
- £25,000 - £30,000 salary (pro rata)
- Uncapped commission and bonus scheme - your earning potential is in your hands
- Company pension
- Flexible working hours
- Health and wellbeing programme
- Gym membership and on-site gym
- On-site parking
- Clear route for development and promotion
This is a business that rewards effort, encourages growth, and values work-life balance. You'll be part of a team where your input matters, your success is recognised, and your development is actively supported.
