• Proactively contacting prospective customers against mutually agreed targets and developing a consistent, high-quality new-business pipeline.
• Selling and promoting the full service range once contact has been established, with particular emphasis on same-day courier, UK haulage, full and part loads, groupage and European road freight.
• Identifying opportunities to cross-sell international courier, customs support, air and sea freight, parcels, pallets and warehousing where they meet the customer's needs.
• Developing relationships with decision makers in sectors where service, reliability and responsiveness matter, including manufacturing, distribution, retail, construction, healthcare and public-sector supply chains.
• Preparing accurate, commercially sound quotations and proposals, then following up professionally and persistently to convert opportunities. EXPERIENCE

REQUIRED:

Must have a provable track record of winning business in UK same-day transport, haulage or road freight. Must have a UK driving licence
