Wiren Recruitment Services is recruiting on behalf of anestablished global freight organisationfor a driven and personable Business Development Executive to join its growing sales team.
This is a genuinenew-business sales rolefor someone who enjoys the chase, likes winning customers and wants their effort and results to directly influence what they earn.
We are looking for someone withenergy, ambition and a strong work ethic— someone who is prepared to pick up the phone, get out in front of businesses and create opportunities rather than simply wait for them to arrive.
Freight or logistics experience would be highly regarded, but it is not essential.
Strong salespeople from other industries with the right attitude, personality and drive are also encouraged to apply.
The current brief places particular emphasis on work ethic, personality, prospecting and cold calling, while freight knowledge is preferred rather than mandatory.
What's in it for you?

And importantly,the customers you win form part of the portfolio you build, with trailing commission providing the opportunity to continue earning from the business you generate.
You'll have a strong team and support structure around you, but your results will ultimately come from your ownactivity, consistency and determination to succeed.
Who we're looking for
We're interested inhungry, motivated people who want to build something for themselves.
