Are you a confident communicator with a flair for building relationships and driving results?

Do you thrive in a fast-paced environment where no two days are the same? We’re looking for an ambitious Internal Sales Executive to join a well-established freight forwarding business with a strong track record of success. This role offers excellent career progression, with a clear path into a field-based Business Development role for the right person.

The Company

For nearly 40 years, this logistics provider has been trusted by UK exporters and importers to deliver reliable, cost-effective, and personalised solutions.

Part of a larger logistics group with a turnover exceeding £140 million, the business combines the stability of a market leader with the supportive, close-knit feel of a specialist team.

Ideal attributes include:

• Experience handling quotations and tenders
