Convert inbound sales and grow new business across temperature-controlled transport and storage for an established national cold chain operator.

The Role

Know your way around cold chain logistics? Ready to step into a hybrid role where you'll convert inbound sales opportunities and drive new business across a network of temperature-controlled transport and storage services?

This is your opportunity to join an established, 20 year operator with a national footprint spanning transport and cold storage, working across frozen, chilled and ambient supply chains for some of the country's leading food and beverage brands.

What you'll be doing

Inbound sales enquiries land on your desk first, and converting them into long-term accounts is central to the role. Alongside that, you'll proactively grow the business by identifying and acquiring new customers across the temperature-controlled transport and storage offering. Strong communication and a solid grasp of logistics and supply chain fundamentals underpin every client conversation, from first enquiry through to closed business.

Why this role stands out:

- Warm pipeline, real growth: convert genuine inbound demand while building your own new business pipeline.

- Backed by scale: a national network across transport and cold storage, serving supermarkets, food manufacturers,



hospitality and more.

- Hybrid flexibility: a role that balances office-based conversion work with the autonomy to build client relationships your way.

What we're looking for

- Sales or account management experience within logistics, supply chain, cold chain, transport or a closely related sector

- Strong communication skills, with the ability to convert inbound enquiries and build lasting client relationships

- Working knowledge of logistics and supply chain principles, particularly within temperature-controlled environments

- Comfort managing both reactive inbound sales and proactive new business development

The prospect:

A national network across transport and cold storage gives you a genuine story to sell, backed by two decades of industry experience and a client base spanning some of Australia's best-known food and beverage brands. Commercial impact here is immediate — inbound enquiries convert into revenue, and new accounts won add directly to a growing footprint.

If you're ready for a hybrid role where you can build a pipeline, convert demand already coming to you, and grow your own book of business, this is worth a conversation.
