B2B Sales Representative (Transportation & Logistics) - EST Hrs (Remote)

ISTA Personnel Solutions South Africa is partnering with a rapidly growing logistics client to expand their Sales Department. We are seeking a motivated, aggressive, and self-driven B2B Sales Representative to join the team.

This is a high-energy, target-driven role focused on generating new business opportunities and closing deals with small to medium-sized businesses. Leads are provided through a proprietary system, but success in this role requires a proactive, hustler mentality and a strong drive to exceed targets. Full industry training will be provided – prior logistics experience is a bonus, but prior sales experience and a competitive, results-focused attitude are essential.

• Maintain high standards of professionalism and customer service, creating referral and repeat business opportunities.
• Communicate the benefits of the client’s logistics solutions effectively to potential customers.
• Source solutions and collaborate with the operations team to ensure client satisfaction.

Requirements:
• Proven B2B Sales Experience: Minimum of 2 years of successful sales, preferably in logistics, transportation, or supply chain solutions. Logistics/trucking sales experience is a plus, but not required.
• Inside Sales Expertise: Extensive experience in high-volume inside sales targeting new business prospects.
• Results-Driven: Strong hunger and drive to consistently meet and exceed sales targets.
• Self-Motivated: Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, target-driven environment.
