We are a North American freight brokerage providing LTL and FTL transportation solutions across Canada and the United States. Our approach is built around strong communication, competitive pricing, reliable service, and long-term relationships with our clients and carrier partners.
We’re particularly interested in experienced logistics sales professionals, as well as individuals with strong professional networks and established relationships with businesses that regularly require transportation services.
Whether your opportunities come from existing industry relationships, referrals, your professional network, or your ability to prospect and open new doors, we’re looking for people who know how to turn connections into long-term business relationships.
The Role
As a Senior Logistics Sales Executive, you will be responsible for identifying new business opportunities and developing long-term client relationships for Breakaway Logistix.
You will have the opportunity to leverage your professional network, industry relationships, referrals, and strategic prospecting to connect with businesses that could benefit from Breakaway’s transportation services.
Once an opportunity is identified, you’ll work closely with our team to develop competitive transportation solutions and provide the communication and service needed to turn new opportunities into lasting client relationships.
Responsibilities
- Develop new business through professional relationships, referrals, industry connections, and strategic prospecting
- Identify and connect with companies that have ongoing transportation requirements
- Build relationships with business owners, founders, transportation managers, supply chain teams, operations leaders, and other key decision-makers
- Introduce prospective clients to Breakaway’s transportation services and identify opportunities where we can provide value
- Build, manage, and grow a portfolio of client accounts
- dentify additional lanes and transportation opportunities within existing accounts
- Work closely with our operations team to develop competitive and reliable transportation solutions
- Develop opportunities across LTL, FTL, dry van, refrigerated, heated, and specialized transportation
- Maintain strong client relationships and communication throughout the sales and account-management process
- Represent Breakaway Logistix professionally while helping expand our presence throughout the North American market
Qualifications
We’re interested in candidates who bring a strong combination of sales ability, industry experience, and/or an established professional network.
Ideal candidates will have one or more of the following:
- Previous experience in logistics, freight brokerage, transportation, 3PL, or related sales
- An established professional network within industries that regularly require transportation services
- Existing relationships with business owners, founders, transportation professionals, supply chain teams, operations leaders, or other business decision-makers
- Previous experience developing new business through relationships, referrals, networking, or prospecting
- A demonstrated ability to identify opportunities, open doors, and develop long-term client relationships
- Strong communication, negotiation, and relationship-building skills
- The ability to independently identify and pursue new business opportunities
- Experience within food and beverage, CPG, retail, manufacturing, apparel, or other high-volume shipping industries is considered an asset
- Knowledge of Canadian and cross-border U.S. transportation is considered an asset
Who We’re Looking For
Our ideal candidate is someone who understands the value of relationships in business.
You may already have years of logistics sales experience and an established network within the transportation industry. Or, you may come from a strong sales or business development background with relationships across companies and industries that regularly require transportation.
What matters is your ability to identify opportunities, build trust, open doors, and develop relationships that can grow into long-term business.
If you’re well-connected, motivated to develop new business, and interested in growing alongside an expanding North American brokerage, we’d like to hear from you.
