Our client is a growing and established logistics and transportation organization seeking a Junior 3PL Sales Representative to join their team. This is an exciting opportunity for a motivated, personable, and ambitious individual who is looking to build a long-term career in sales and logistics.
The ideal candidate does not need to be an experienced logistics sales professional. Instead, we're looking for someone with strong customer-facing sales experience, a hunger to learn, and the drive to grow. You will receive hands-on mentorship and training from experienced leaders and gain exposure to the full world of third-party logistics (3PL) and transportation.
This is an opportunity to learn the business from the ground up while developing the skills needed to become a successful logistics sales professional.
The Opportunity
As a Junior 3PL Sales Representative, you will work closely with the Sales Director and experienced members of the team to learn the logistics and transportation industry, understand customer needs, and develop your sales skills.
You will have the opportunity to:
- Accompany the Sales Director on client meetings and sales calls to gain real-world experience.
- Learn the ins and outs of the 3PL, transportation, and logistics industry.
- Gain an understanding of freight, transportation solutions, supply chain requirements, and customer logistics needs.
- Learn how to identify and develop new business opportunities.
- Build and maintain strong relationships with prospective and existing customers.
- Participate in sales meetings and learn how to present logistics solutions to clients.
- Assist with preparing proposals, quotes, and presentations.
- Learn how to understand a client's business needs and recommend appropriate transportation and logistics solutions.
- Support the sales team with lead generation, prospecting, follow-ups, and account development.
- Develop a strong understanding of the company's services and value proposition.
- Work collaboratively with operations and internal teams to ensure customer needs are understood and effectively supported.
- Gradually take on greater responsibility for managing client relationships and developing your own book of business as your knowledge and confidence grow.
What We're Looking For
We are looking for someone who is curious, driven, coachable, and eager to build a career. You may be early in your sales career, but you should have the confidence and personality to connect with people and the motivation to continuously learn.
The successful candidate will have:
- Previous sales or customer-facing experience, ideally within retail, food service, hospitality, or another customer-focused environment.
- A genuine interest in developing a career in sales, logistics, transportation, or supply chain.
- Strong communication and interpersonal skills.
- A positive, professional, and confident approach when interacting with customers.
- A willingness to learn and take direction from experienced sales professionals.
- Strong organizational skills and the ability to manage multiple priorities.
- A proactive, self-motivated attitude with a strong desire to succeed.
- The ability to build rapport and develop lasting relationships with customers.
- Some previous exposure to logistics, transportation, freight, warehousing, or supply chain would be considered a strong asset, but is not required.
- A valid Class 5 driver's licence.
- The flexibility and willingness to travel locally for client meetings and sales activities as required.
The Right Fit
This role is ideal for someone who may have started their career in a customer-facing or sales environment and is now ready to take the next step into a professional B2B sales career.
You might be someone who has worked in retail, hospitality, food service, or another customer-focused environment and has discovered that you enjoy building relationships, helping customers, and achieving sales results.
What matters most is your aptitude, attitude, and hunger to learn.
You don't need to know everything about logistics on day one. Our client is prepared to invest in the right person through hands-on training, mentorship, and exposure to experienced sales professionals. You'll learn by being in the room, joining customer meetings, asking questions, and gaining a first-hand understanding of how the logistics and transportation business operates.
If you're ambitious, curious, and excited by the idea of building something for yourself while growing alongside a great organization, this could be an excellent opportunity to launch your career in 3PL sales.
Why Join?
- Hands-on training and mentorship from experienced sales leaders.
- Opportunity to accompany the Sales Director on client meetings and sales calls.
- Learn the logistics and transportation business directly from industry professionals.
- Build valuable experience in B2B sales and business development.
- Opportunity for long-term career growth within a growing organization.
- Work alongside a collaborative and experienced team.
- Develop the skills and industry knowledge needed to grow into a successful 3PL Sales professional.
