Key Responsibilities

  • Identify and develop new business opportunities across container liner services, bulk/tramp services, break-bulk, and feeder services
  • Manage and grow an existing client portfolio (importers, exporters, CHAs, manufacturers, trading houses)
  • Generate freight quotations in line with prevailing market rates and negotiate with shipping lines/carriers
  • Build and maintain strong relationships with shipping lines, NVOCCs, and CHA partners
  • Coordinate with the operations and customer service teams to ensure smooth shipment execution
  • Track competitor activity, market trends, and freight rate movements
  • Achieve monthly/quarterly volume and revenue targets (TEUs, tonnage, or revenue-based)
  • Maintain accurate CRM records and submit timely sales MIS/reports

Requirements

  • Graduate/Postgraduate (preferred: shipping, logistics, international trade, or business administration)
  • 2–8 years of experience in freight forwarding, shipping line, or logistics sales (experience level flexes by seniority of the opening)
  • Strong understanding of INCOTERMS, shipping documentation (BL, COO, Invoice/Packing List), and customs processes
  • Existing client relationships/market network in the assigned location is a strong plus
  • Excellent negotiation, communication, and relationship-management skills
  • Willingness to travel locally for client meetings
