Official Job Description

As Director of Sales, you are an individual-contributor hunter reporting directly to the President. You will personally source, advance, and close new-logo fulfillment deals with the consumer brands that matter most, opening doors through your existing relationships in the fulfillment and logistics industry.

This is a high-impact, high-visibility role for a self-sourcing seller who lives in the deal. You will bring a consultative approach to enterprise selling, a deep understanding of the fulfillment and logistics landscape, and a personal Rolodex of brand relationships you can activate from day one.

Key Responsibilities

• Self-source and build your own pipeline through your personal network and direct outreach; do not rely on inbound leads or SDRs to fill your calendar.

• Own an annual revenue target of ~$5M, with accurate forecasting and disciplined deal velocity.

• Target and win high-value DTC, B2B, and omnichannel brands; 100% of deals are competitive displacements against incumbent 3PLs.

• Manage the full sales cycle from initial outreach through discovery, solution design, negotiation, and contract execution.

• Represent the company at industry events, trade shows, and in-person client meetings; travel 30 to 40% as needed.

• Serve as the point of contact for your accounts, growing them via land-and-expand into additional locations and services.

• Sell the dual platform and intermodal logistics provider offering: platform-based fulfillment plus transportation handoffs (parcel, LTL, TL, drayage, transloading), earning commission on referrals.

• Partner with operations, marketing, and product teams to ensure alignment on go-to-market execution.

Qualifications

• 4 to 5+ years of B2B sales experience with a fulfillment-centric book of business (ecommerce order fulfillment, warehousing, or 3PL).

• A strong personal Rolodex of brand logistics, operations, or procurement contacts you can call to get a meeting immediately. This is the number one requirement.

• Demonstrated success in the logistics, 3PL, fulfillment, supply chain, or warehousing industry.

• Proven track record of consistently meeting or exceeding revenue targets in a high-growth, fast-paced environment.

• A true hunter who self-sources pipeline and thrives in an early-stage, entrepreneurial environment with minimal process support.

• Based in the Northeast U.S. (NY/NJ/PA preferred), able to reach customer and warehouse sites in NJ and PA on short notice.

Compensation & Benefits

• $110K to $130K base salary, plus uncapped commission of ~10% of gross margin (roughly 1% of top-line revenue).

• Meaningful signing bonus.

• Comprehensive health and dental coverage (Harvard Pilgrim HMO & Delta Dental PPO), the company covers 70% of premiums.

• 15 days PTO, 10 company holidays, and a 401(k) with up to 4% company match.

Why This Company?

• Direct access to the President, who feeds leads and clears roadblocks personally, with real influence and no bureaucracy.

• A category-defining product: proprietary platform and AI suite give you differentiated tools to sell.

• An entrepreneurial, mission-driven culture where your work has visible impact.
