Now Hiring - Customer Sales Rep in Oakbrook Terrace, IL

We're looking for an experienced Customer Sales Rep with an understanding of what it takes to bring on new customers at a 3PL/freight brokerage…

Are you at a freight brokerage where every customer is already owned by someone who has been there for 15 years? Are you sick of being a small fish in a giant pond, where if a customer is in someone's name you can't call them, even if they're not getting freight? If you’re ready for a change and want to become a big fish in a small pond, Mark-it Express may be the right place for you!

We’re looking for an experienced Customer Sales Rep, (must have a book of business), who is looking to join a team where they will have a chance at substantial growth right away.

At this point in time, please do not apply if you’re looking to shift from an account coordinator or carrier sales rep to a customer sales rep. While we will be looking for motivated people wanting a change one day, right now we’re looking for someone who can hit the ground running.

Mark-it Express understands that knowledge is the key to growth. We don’t just give you a computer and phone and tell you to “go sell”. We provide the tools for you to succeed by taking the time to train you, answer questions, and show you not only to talk the talk, but to walk the walk.

Customer sales responsibilities are:

• Build real, strong, lasting relationships with shipping customers.
• Make warm and cold calls, visit companies, and get a foot in the door.
• Learn to keep up with the ever-changing market.
• A true team player willing to jump in to help everyone achieve success.
• Be honest with not only the team, but our carriers and customers.
• Have a sense of urgency to provide our customers with the best possible service.
• Have fun!

We provide a transparent, open, and honest environment where everyone feels comfortable going to anyone. Many of us have spent 15 to 20+ years grinding it out from day to day, so we understand needing a work/life balance. As long as everything is taken care of, we don’t expect you to sit around from 6am to 6pm. We encourage our team to spend time with family, friends, pets, or whatever makes you happy.

If this seems like something you’re looking for, please send your resume to Adam at [please apply online]

• High school diploma required.

• Ability to communicate professionally and effectively, both written and orally, with both teammates and customers.
• Must be able to prioritize, organize and multitask duties, shifting from one to another seamlessly.
• Proficient in Microsoft Word, Outlook, along with basic computer skills, including typing.
