  • Personally engage strategic accounts and high-potential prospects.
  • Drive disciplined sales activity: prospecting, client visits, proposals, follow-ups, closures and account reviews.
  • Strengthen key account management and improve wallet share from existing clients.
  • Monitor pricing, discounting, margins, credit terms and client profitability.
  • Support collections discipline and escalation management where required.
  • Track competitor activity, customer pain points and market opportunities as well as help plan counter strategies

  • Commercially sharp with strong pricing, negotiation and margin discipline.
  • Strong team leadership, sales cadence and performance management capability.

Must-Have Requirements

  • Courier / express / last-mile / e-commerce / Freight sales exposure.
  • Strong new business development track record.
