• Conduct in-person client visits and presentations to strengthen relationships and uncover new opportunities.
• Collaborate closely with operations, pricing, and compliance teams to design customized, competitive solutions.
• Negotiate and close complex contracts that deliver long-term value to both the customer and the company.
• Maintain strong pipeline discipline through CRM (CargoWise), managing opportunities from lead to close.
• Stay ahead of market trends and competitor movements to identify and seize new business potential.
• Represent Priority Worldwide at industry events, exhibitions, and client meetings to promote our brand and expertise.

What You Bring

• Minimum 5 years of outside sales experience in international freight forwarding (air/ocean freight focus).
• Proven track record of business development success — generating new accounts and driving revenue growth.
• Strong understanding of air/ocean logistics, international trade, and global supply chain solutions.
• Excellent communication, presentation, and relationship-building skills.
• Collaborative mindset with the ability to work cross-functionally and deliver client-focused solutions.
• Bachelor’s degree preferred.
