About the Opportunity:

A fast-growing logistics and transportation provider is seeking a strategic and results-driven Vice President of Sales to lead and scale its national sales organization. The ideal candidate brings a proven track record of leading high-performing sales teams across multiple regions, preferably within the logistics, last-mile delivery, or transportation industry.

This is a critical executive-level role with direct visibility to the CEO and COO, responsible for driving revenue growth, developing scalable sales processes, and mentoring a team of Account Managers, Business Development Managers, and Sales Executives across the country.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead and execute the company’s national sales strategy to achieve aggressive growth targets
  • Recruit, hire, onboard, and coach a team of AEs, AMs, BDMs, and BDCs
  • Conduct weekly 1:1s, establish KPIs, and implement accountability structures
  • Analyze activity, pipeline, and revenue data (Flash Reports, CRM, Ops reports)
  • Collaborate with the executive team to set forecasts, territory plans, and revenue goals
  • Drive performance through mentoring, sales training, and high-impact coaching
  • Travel to key markets to support reps, meet clients, and represent the brand
  • Participate in client pitches, strategy calls, and carrier/vendor meetings alongside the CEO/COO
  • Ensure excellent service levels and resolve escalated client concerns as needed
  • Represent the company at industry events, conventions, and networking functions

What We’re Looking For:

  • 3–5+ years of leadership experience in logistics, delivery, or transportation (preferred)
  • Proven success leading a national B2B sales team with measurable results
  • Bachelor’s degree in Business, Sales, or related field (required)
  • Strong executive presence with the ability to influence across all levels
  • Hands-on leader with experience building high-performance teams and scaling revenue
  • Proficient in sales operations, forecasting, CRM systems (Zoho preferred)
  • Willingness to travel regularly across markets and client locations

This is a high-impact, leadership-driven opportunity for someone who thrives in a fast-paced, client-centric logistics environment. You’ll have the autonomy to shape the future of the sales org — and the backing of an experienced leadership team to help make it happen.
