About UsAir Land & Sea Express is a family and veteran owned freight brokerage headquartered in St. Louis, MO. In business since 1985, we have built a reputation for reliability, integrity, and taking care of our people. We are a growing business, having experienced sustained growth for over a decade. We are a small business — and proud of it — which means you will be a valued member of a tight-knit team, not a number in a large corporate operation.
Aboutthe Role
We are looking to add a reliable, experienced Freight Broker to our team. This is not a sales role — no cold calling, no prospecting. You will focus entirely on what you do best: coordinating freight, building carrier relationships, and ensuring our customers' loads are covered and moving on time.

- Maintain accurate records and updates within our TMS
- Innovation and ideas are welcomed and rewarded — we strive to constantly improve our product and processes

- 1–2+ years of hands‑on freight brokerage operations experience (required)
- Demonstrated ability to vet, negotiate with, and manage carrier relationships
- Experience creating shipments and BOLs in a brokerage environment
- Strong customer service skills — professional, clear, and responsive
- Good work ethic and a positive, team‑oriented attitude

- Primarily on‑site in St. Louis; occasional remote work may be approved
- Commission available for existing transferable business
We keep our process straightforward:
- In‑person interview at our St. Louis office

We are actively hiring and looking to bring the right person on board as soon as possible.
