Job Ref: JO-2501-5504

We are thrilled to be exclusively partnering with a leading global logistics provider to find their next Business Development Director—a key role driving growth across warehousing, freight forwarding, and 3PL solutions.

Why This Opportunity Stands Out

This is a unique opportunity to take ownership of business development within a high-growth, internationally recognised organisation. You’ll play a pivotal role in securing new business, particularly within food logistics, import/export, and warehousing solutions, while also shaping the commercial strategy. In addition to winning high-value contracts, you’ll train and develop the existing sales team, enhancing their capabilities and driving long-term success.

Key Responsibilities

  • Hunt for new business, targeting mid-to-large enterprises in food, retail, and FMCG sectors.
  • Develop and execute sales strategies for freight forwarding, warehousing, and 3PL solutions.
  • Drive commercial growth through tenders, contract negotiation, and strategic account expansion.

What You’ll Bring

  • Proven sales leadership in logistics, freight forwarding, or supply chain solutions.
  • strong network in the food industry, with expertise in warehousing and import/export.
  • competitive, results-driven mindset with a track record of exceeding revenue targets.

This is a high-impact role for a driven sales leader ready to make a significant impact. Get in touch today to learn more.
