This is a new-logo acquisition role built for someone who thrives on the chase. You'll identify opportunities, build executive relationships, and develop consultative transportation solutions for customers with specialized delivery requirements.

Success in this role requires more than closing deals. It requires understanding each customer's business, guiding them through a successful launch, and continuing to serve as the face of CRST as opportunities for expansion arise.

If you enjoy building relationships, navigating complex organizations, and opening new opportunities while staying connected to your customers, this role was built for you.
