What they need
If you know you can win more business, the right platform matters.
A proven freight forwarding BDM can only do so much with limited buying power, solutions or commission upside.
This opportunity gives you the scale to chase larger (500 - 2,500 TEUs) accounts, more ways to solve customer problems, and a commission structure designed to properly reward high performers.
You’ll join a major top 15 global logistics provider with the network, infrastructure and operational capability to support what you sell.
Why Consider It?
- $135k–$200k + super + car + commission (aggressive structure starting from 10%).
- Sell more than freight
Leverage freight forwarding, 3PL, domestic and e-commerce capabilities to build larger customer relationships and increase wallet share. - Have the backing to win
Strong global infrastructure, buying power and operational support mean you can compete on more than price. - Build something lasting
The focus is on winning customers that stay, with strong retention and the service capability to support long-term relationships. - Learn from strong performers
Work alongside an experienced team of sales and logistics professionals who can help you sharpen your approach and grow further.
The Role
You’ll be responsible for:
- Hunting and converting new business across freight and logistics
- Developing and growing a portfolio of customers
- Identifying opportunities to increase wallet share
- Selling tailored freight and logistics solutions
- Working closely with operations and management to deliver for your customers
You
You’ll already have a proven track record in freight forwarding sales.
More importantly, you’ll be someone who wants to build, win and earn.
You know how to open doors, understand customer requirements and turn opportunities into long-term business.
You don't need to be the loudest salesperson in the room. You need to know how to sell value and make things happen.
The Opportunity
This is a strong move for a BDM who feels their current platform isn't matching their ambition, whether that's earning potential, account size or the solutions they can take to market.
If you're good at what you do and want more behind you, this is worth a confidential conversation.
Apply now or contact reach out to Yoga.Yu @ Linktal.com.au.
All enquiries will be handled with strict confidentiality.
