  • Hunt for new business in import / export freight forwarding (Air & Ocean)
  • Grow and manage key accounts with a focus on long-term partnerships
  • Sell full-service logistics solutions, including NVOCC and customs coordination
  • Collaborate with internal teams to ensure smooth handoff — then get back out there to sell!

What You Bring :

  • Proven track record in  international freight sales
  • Solid understanding of  global trade, customs, and compliance
  • Entrepreneurial drive — you thrive on creating opportunities, not waiting for them
  • Based in or near  Chicagoland  (hybrid / remote flexibility available)
  • $95K–$130K base + strong commissions + full benefits

    If you’re a relationship builder with a hunter’s mindset who knows how to close international freight business — we want to talk to you.
