C-Suite Relationship Building : Cultivate and maintain deep, trusted relationships with senior executives (CFOs, COOs, Supply Chain Directors) to ensure alignment and sponsorship for large-scale projects.

Professional Presentation : Deliver compelling, high-impact presentations that clearly articulate value, ROI, and our unique competitive advantage.

Market Intelligence : Serve as the internal expert on customer challenges, market trends, and competitor activities, informing regional and global sales strategies.

Proactive Retention : Implement robust customer retention programs and lead regular business reviews to solidify partnerships and identify expansion opportunities.

Required Experience & Expertise

Industry Experience : Minimum 7+ years of progressive experience in Enterprise / Strategic Account Sales within the Logistics, Air Freight, or Supply Chain industry.

Domain Knowledge : A deep, demonstrable understanding of complex international courier / logistics operations, customs procedures, and modern supply chain optimization.

Sales Track Record : Proven track record of developing and closing multi-million dollar deals with major multinational corporations (complex sales cycle expertise is critical).

Core Competencies (Skills)

Negotiation Mastery : Exceptional skill in leading high-stakes contract and pricing negotiations.

Executive Presence : High-level competence in C-Suite relationship building and influencing executive-level stakeholders.

Communication : Exceptional Written & Verbal Communication Skills, necessary for internal alignment and external client engagement.
