M & L Worldwide Logistics is seeking an experienced, relationship-driven Logistics Sales Executive to join our growing team. If you're a proven logistics sales professional who values long-term customer relationships over transactional selling, we'd like to talk with you.
This role is responsible for expanding our domestic and international freight portfolio, growing existing customer relationships, and developing new business opportunities through consultative logistics solutions that create lasting partnerships.
Please note - this role requires up to 75% daily travel within designated sales territory. Territory for this position based in Tallahassee, FL includes Florida, Georgia, Alabama, Mississippi and South Carolina.
Unlike large corporate brokerages, M & L Worldwide Logistics offers direct access to executive leadership, a collaborative team environment, and the operational support needed to help you focus on what you do best—building and growing customer relationships. We believe our sales professionals should spend their time developing business, not chasing freight.
