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 recent business development

The opportunity:

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.
