Job Description - Senior Sales Representative

Red Ember Recruitment is looking for a senior-level Sales Representative on behalf of a well-established international logistics company that
provides end-to-end in-house logistics solutions, including warehousing,
storage, shipping (sea 90%, air 10%), and customs clearance. While the company
currently focuses on managing logistics operations for a major multinational
electronics brand, they are now looking to expand their general customer base.

To support this growth, they need a dynamic, results-driven
individual to build and lead the external sales function from scratch, driving
new business acquisition and increasing profitability across a wider range of
industries

Duties:

  • Independently
    identify, target, and secure new logistics clients across various sectors.

  • Develop and
    implement a strategic business development plan aligned with company
    goals.

  • Penetrate markets
    that require services such as import/export, customs clearance,
    warehousing, and transport.

  • Build and manage a
    personal sales pipeline, reporting directly to senior leadership.

  • Deliver detailed
    progress reports and data-driven updates using advanced Excel tools (pivot
    tables, formulas, graphs, VLOOKUPs, what-if scenarios).

  • Manage the full
    sales cycle, from lead generation to closing contracts and post-sales
    follow-up.

  • Represent the
    company professionally at networking events and client meetings.



Requirements

  • Senior-level
    experience in logistics or supply chain sales, with a proven record of closing
    deals and exceeding targets.

  • Existing
    market presence and industry network within relevant sectors (construction,
    engineering, etc.).

  • Ability
    to work autonomously with no pre-existing leads or sales support.

  • Advanced
    skills in Microsoft Excel, as well as strong proficiency in PowerPoint,
    Outlook, and other MS Office tools.

  • Entrepreneurial
    mindset with the ability to adapt, take initiative, and deliver results
    independently.

  • Deep
    understanding of logistics services, especially sea and air freight, customs
    processes, and warehousing
    .
