If so, nice to meet you! We are Loadsmart and we are adding an additional Sr. Solution Sales Director to continue to fuel our growth. This position is responsible for developing and executing new business growth strategies aimed at long-term growth and profitability within Loadsmart’s Shipper Solutions group. This person leads solution sales efforts for new customers and cross/upsell expansion of existing customers. Not pushing a product or specific service, but rather listening, consulting and creating solutions across platforms and/or services, leveraging SMEs.
This position is an individual contributor role, however, it requires strong matrixed collaboration skills to drive engagement across internal sales teams (Digital, Managed Transportation and Brokerage), external decision makers, and Loadsmart leadership teams (including, but not limited to, sales, implementation, operations, product, and engineering) to ensure qualified leads are identified and pursued properly. You will obsess about delighting our customers to achieve breakout revenue growth. You will create a culture of sales success and lead by example.
