Varius has partnered withour client, a well-established 3PL/logisticsorganization, to recruit an Account Executive for their Sales team. This is a replacement role with independent ownership of a territory and pipeline, inside a fast-paced, highly collaborative sales and solution-design environment.

You will generate profitable new 3PL revenue by identifying, qualifying, developing, and closing business that requires warehousing, fulfillment, transportation, value-added services, and Canadian market-entry support — building a consistent pipeline of qualified opportunities and winning new logos that fit the clients network and operating capabilities.

Candidates with backgrounds in 3PL, freight, or other service-oriented industries are especially encouraged to apply.

- Negotiate commercial terms within approved parameters and close profitable new business.

In your first 90 days, success looks like completing onboarding, building your territory and target-account list, and moving into active prospecting; with 15 to 20 discovery meetings and 5 to 8 qualified opportunities on the board, including at least one proposal or late-stage deal. By months 3 to 6,you’rerunning discovery, tours, pricing, and solution design with limited supervision, and growing pipeline coverage toward 3x target with repeatable monthly opportunity creation. By month 12, you’re sustaining a healthy, forecastable pipeline — roughly 12 qualified discovery meetings and 4 new sales-qualified opportunities a month, at least 3x pipeline coverage against your annual target — and hitting your approved first-year new-business revenue and contribution-margin targets with clean, complete implementation handoffs.

What You Bring

- At least 3–5 years of B2B business development or consultative sales experience, including full-cycle prospecting and closing.
- Direct 3PL, warehousing, fulfillment, transportation,

- Post-secondary education in business, supply chain,logistics, or a related field preferred; equivalent experience considered.
- Valid driver’s license required, with the ability to travel within the assigned territory.
