Job Description

Vice President / Branch Director – Brokerage Startup (Confidential)

Location:  To be decided

Compensation: $150,000 – $225,000 Base + Aggressive Commission Structure + Equity Consideration
Location: Flexible / Remote with leadership presence as needed
Industry: Transportation & Logistics Brokerage

We are seeking a high-impact, executive-level leader to build and scale a freight brokerage operation from the ground up. This is not a maintenance role. This is a builder’s role.

We want a proven rainmaker and operator who has already built, scaled, and led high-performing brokerage teams and can be trusted to own the P&L as if it were their own company.

Who You Are

• 15+ years of progressive leadership in logistics sales and/or freight brokerage
• Demonstrated success building or significantly scaling a brokerage operation
• Proven record of closing enterprise-level freight opportunities
• Deep carrier network and shipper relationships
• Strong financial acumen with full P&L ownership experience
• Experienced hiring, mentoring, and developing hunter-driven sales teams
• Unquestioned integrity — trusted with sensitive financials, strategy, and growth plans
• Entrepreneurial mindset with the discipline of an operator

What You’ll Do

• Launch and scale a brokerage division with full operational oversight
• Build and lead a high-performance sales organization
• Develop strategic carrier and shipper partnerships
• Establish SOPs, compliance standards, and operational infrastructure
• Drive aggressive but profitable revenue growth
• Own margin management and overall branch profitability
• Partner directly with executive leadership on expansion strategy

What We Offer

• $150K–$225K base salary (commensurate with experience)
• Lucrative commission structure with no artificial caps
• Long-term wealth-building opportunity (equity potential for the right leader)
• Strong financial backing and executive support
• Freedom to build the right way

This opportunity is ideal for a senior brokerage leader who wants autonomy, upside, and the ability to build something meaningful — not just manage someone else’s system.

If you’ve built it before and are ready to build it again at a higher level, we want to speak with you. Submit your resume to linda.powell@gogpac.com
