Transportation Terminal Manager – Sales-Focused Leader
Salary: $100K - $150K Base + Incentives
Norfolk, VA
Transportation | Freight | Terminal Operations | Sales Leadership 💰 Competitive Base + Incentives
Are you a high-energy transportation leader who loves driving revenue as much as running a tight, high-performing terminal? Our client is seeking a Sales-driven Terminal Manager to lead their Norfolk operation—someone who knows the industry inside and out, builds strong customer relationships, and inspires teams to exceed expectations.
What You’ll Do
Lead all aspects of terminal operations, ensuring service excellence and operational efficiency.
Drive new business development and local sales initiatives to grow market share.
Build and maintain strong relationships with customers, carriers, and regional partners.
Lead, mentor, and develop terminal staff—fostering a culture of accountability, safety, and high performance.
Collaborate with executive leadership on growth strategy, budgeting, and performance KPIs.
Ensure compliance with all transportation, safety, and industry regulations.
What We’re Looking For
Proven experience running a transportation, freight, or logistics terminal.
Strong sales mindset with demonstrated success growing local business.
Deep industry knowledge across trucking, freight, dispatch, customer service, and P&L management.
Leadership style that motivates teams, drives accountability, and elevates performance.
Customer-centric communicator who thrives in a fast-paced, hands-on environment.
Comfortable balancing operations leadership with external sales and relationship building.
Why This Role Stands Out
High visibility role with direct impact on revenue and operational success.
Autonomy to run the terminal like an entrepreneur—with big support behind you.
