This is an on-site opportunity in Milton for a true hunter who is comfortable picking up the phone, making cold calls, getting out in the field, visiting customers, and creating opportunities rather than waiting for them to come in.

  • Strong negotiating and closing skills
  • Ability to develop relationships with shippers and decision-makers
  • Hunter mentality with the drive to prospect consistently
  • Comfortable making cold calls and face-to-face customer visits
  • Self-motivated, competitive, and accountable for results
  • Ability to work independently while partnering with operations and carrier teams

  • Annual or monthly revenue generated
  • Monthly/annual gross profit
  • Average gross margin
  • Approximate freight volume or loads moved
  • New business generated
  • Size and type of your current book of business
  • Major customer industries or account types

If you can't tell us what you've produced, this probably isn't the opportunity for you.

What You'll Do

  • Prospect and develop new shipper accounts
  • Make consistent outbound calls and conduct in-person customer visits
  • Identify new freight opportunities and convert them into revenue
  • Build and maintain a profitable book of business
  • Develop long-term customer relationships
  • Quote and negotiate freight rates
  • Work closely with operations and carrier partners to ensure excellent service
  • Grow existing accounts while continually hunting for new business
  • Monitor revenue and margins to ensure profitable growth
  • Meet and exceed sales and revenue goals

Compensation & Opportunity

  • $70,000–$100,000 base salary + commissions, depending on experience
  • On-site position in Milton, Ontario
  • Opportunity to build and grow a significant book of business
