Director, Business Development About the Opportunity
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 setting. 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. What You’ll Do
Build and manage a targeted pipeline of 3PL prospects across an assigned territory. Research ideal customer profiles, verticals, and decision-makers. Conduct discovery and translate operational data into qualified requirements. Coordinate facility tours, solution design, pricing, proposals, RFI/RFP responses, and presentations. Negotiate commercial terms within approved parameters and close profitable new business. Own the full new-business sales cycle: target selection, outreach, qualification, discovery, internal solution coordination, proposal, negotiation, close, documentation, and commercial handoff.

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.

Working knowledge of 3PL commercial models, warehousing and fulfillment flows, transportation, pricing, margins, sales qualification, forecasting, and proposal development.
