    Job Description

    AJC Freight Solutions is hiring Freight Sales Account Executives in Miami, FL to grow our customer base and drive gross profit through new and existing freight business.

    This is a hunter/closer role for an experienced freight sales professional with a track record of exceeding quota - not an entry-level position. We are open to candidates with backgrounds in freight brokerage/3PL, asset-based trucking, or international freight forwarding.

    What Youll Do

    Prospect, cold-call, and close new shipper accounts across truckload, LTL, intermodal, and/or international freight, depending on your background. Own and grow a book of business, building long-term relationships that drive repeat volume. Negotiate customer rates and carrier costs to protect and expand gross profit (GP) margin on every load. Partner with carrier sales, operations, and pricing teams to ensure on-time service and resolve issues quickly. Track pipeline, activity, and account health in the CRM/TMS; forecast volume and revenue accurately. Stay on top of market capacity, freight rates, and competitor activity in the Miami/South Florida market and beyond. Consistently meet or exceed monthly and quarterly GP and volume targets.

    What Were Looking For

    3+ years of outside or inside sales experience in the freight/logistics industry - freight brokerage, 3PL, asset-based trucking/carrier, or freight forwarding. Documented top-performer track record: quota attainment, sales awards, Presidents Club, or a portable book of business. Strong cold-calling, negotiation, and relationship-building skills; comfortable with a high-activity, metrics-driven sales cycle. Working knowledge of TMS platforms, load boards (DAT, Truckstop), and CRM tools. Based in or able to reliably work from the Miami, FL area. Bachelors degree preferred; equivalent industry experience will be considered in place of a degree.
