About Amnex Solutions
Amnex Solutions Corp is not a traditional freight brokerage.
We are a rapidly growing transportation and logistics company specializing in OTR, drayage, and complex transportation solutions nationwide — and we have grown approximately 10X over the last year.
Our team moves fast, works hard, solves problems, and takes ownership. We have built a culture around people who would rather figure out how to make something happen than explain why it can't be done.
That growth takes more than winning customers.
It takes dependable carriers, competitive pricing, and people who know how to get freight covered when the easy options run out.
That's where you come in.
The Opportunity
We are looking for a Carrier Sales Representative who knows how to find capacity, negotiate effectively, and turn a first booking into a dependable carrier relationship.
You will work directly with our brokerage and operations teams to secure trucks, protect margins, and keep freight moving across nationwide lanes.
We want someone who learns our lanes, understands what carriers need, and builds relationships that make the next shipment easier to cover.
Someone who can pick up the phone and find a solution.
Someone who understands that the cheapest truck can become an expensive mistake.
Someone who wants to help build the carrier network behind our next stage of growth.
What You'll Do
Secure Capacity Across OTR Freight
Our customers bring us a wide range of transportation needs. You will help find the right capacity for each shipment, including:
- Full Truckload (FTL)
- Less-Than-Truckload (LTL)
- Dry Van
- Reefer
- Flatbed
- Step Deck
- Specialized and Open Deck Freight
- Drayage
- Box Truck & Sprinter
You will understand equipment requirements, pickup and delivery expectations, and lane conditions before committing to a carrier.
The goal is straightforward: cover freight at a competitive rate with a carrier we can trust to perform.
Build a Carrier Network That Gets Stronger
Every load is an opportunity to develop a relationship we can use again.
- Find and develop reliable carriers across nationwide lanes.
- Learn carrier preferences, equipment availability, operating areas, and service strengths.
- Build repeat capacity on core lanes.
- Stay connected with carriers between bookings.
- Reduce dependence on last-minute spot market coverage.
- Identify carriers that can support recurring freight and new customer projects.
Negotiate With Purpose
Strong carrier sales requires knowing the market and understanding the shipment.
- Negotiate rates that support margin targets and dependable service.
- Use lane history, market conditions, and equipment availability to guide decisions.
- Recognize when a rate is competitive and when a shipment needs a different approach.
- Communicate coverage challenges early so the team can make informed decisions.
- Develop repeat carrier relationships that improve pricing and service consistency over time.
Every negotiation should put us in a position to execute successfully and earn the next load.
Take Ownership of Execution
Booking the truck is only part of the job.
You will stay involved with our brokerage and operations teams to help ensure the carrier follows through.
- Confirm equipment, driver information, availability, and shipment requirements.
- Track shipments and communicate updates clearly.
- Address missed pickups, delays, breakdowns, and service failures.
- Find replacement capacity when a plan falls apart.
- Keep internal teams informed so customers receive accurate updates.
- Assist with after-hours issues when necessary.
When something goes wrong, we want someone who gets involved, communicates, and works the problem through.
Make Good Decisions About Who Moves Our Freight
Speed matters. So does judgment.
You will use Carrier411, RMIS, Turvo, and other available tools to vet carriers and manage relationships.
- Follow carrier qualification and compliance procedures.
- Verify carrier and driver information before freight is released.
- Identify discrepancies and escalate concerns.
- Maintain accurate carrier information and shipment records.
- Make sound decisions even when coverage is urgent.
Our customers trust us with their freight. The carriers we choose need to earn that trust too.
Help Build the Company
We're growing quickly, and the carrier network we build today will help determine what we can take on tomorrow.
You will help identify:
- Opportunities for dedicated and repeat capacity
- Strong carriers for new lanes and customer projects
- Gaps in equipment availability or geographic coverage
- Ways to improve pricing, communication, and execution
- Better processes for sourcing and managing carriers
We value people who notice an opportunity and bring an idea forward.
If you see a better way to cover a lane, develop a carrier relationship, or solve a recurring problem, we want to hear it.
Who We're Looking For
You should bring:
- 1–3+ years of experience in carrier sales, dispatch, freight brokerage, or transportation operations.
- A strong understanding of OTR freight markets.
- Knowledge of truckload and LTL operations.
- Familiarity with dry van, reefer, flatbed, step deck, and specialized equipment.
- Strong negotiation and relationship-building skills.
- The ability to manage multiple shipments and deadlines at once.
- Clear communication with carriers, customers, and internal teams.
- Sound judgment under pressure.
- The ability to work independently and follow through.
Existing carrier relationships are a plus. Experience with truckload and LTL freight, TMS platforms, and carrier compliance tools is preferred.
Most importantly, we're looking for someone with drive.
Someone who follows up.
Someone who remembers which carrier runs a lane well.
Someone who keeps developing options before the next urgent load hits the board.
Someone who takes pride in becoming the person the team can count on.
The Culture
Our culture has energy.
We work hard. We move quickly. We joke around. We help each other solve problems.
You'll do well here if you enjoy negotiation, building relationships, and seeing the direct result of your work every day.
You should be comfortable taking initiative, asking questions, and owning your decisions. Freight changes quickly, and we need people who stay engaged when the plan changes with it.
Compensation
- Base salary plus commission.
We are looking for someone motivated by the opportunity to contribute, perform, and grow alongside the business.
Help Build What Comes Next
Amnex grew approximately 10X in the last year, and we're building for the next stage now.
More customers. More lanes. More opportunities to develop dependable capacity and make an impact.
If you're ready to build strong carrier relationships, take ownership of coverage, and help a growing logistics company deliver on its commitments, we want to hear from you.
