Steam Logistics
Sales Coordinator - Domestic (LTL)
Steam Logistics, Chattanooga, Tennessee, United States, 37450
Our Story
Steam Logistics was founded in 2012 to tackle the most strategic challenge many companies face: how to align the supply chain so goods move efficiently, quickly, and economically. As a full-service provider, we offer end-to-end services to help our customers move commodities around the world; from their origin point to their final destination. We’ve rethought the brokerage paradigm and are innovation leaders in our space, looking for the right people to join us as we scale. We are extraordinarily proud of the company we’ve built so far (not to mention humbled to be recognized as Best Places to Work in Chattanooga). Our people are Steam’s biggest competitive advantage, and we’ll continue investing in our people-first culture.
The Opportunity:
Steam Logistics is seeking a motivated and enthusiastic LTL Sales Coordinator to join our Domestic team. Our Domestic sales team focuses on the movement of commodities from one city to another (domestically- see what we did there?). We operate what’s called a cradle to grave model, meaning you are responsible for your accounts from start to finish. Less-Than-Truckload (LTL) shipping is used for the transportation of smaller sized freight shipments when it doesn’t require the use of an entire trailer. This shipping method can generally be used when a shipment weighs between 150 and 15,000 pounds.
This Sales Coordinator will be responsible for prospecting and developing new business opportunities, managing existing customer relationships, and overseeing the transportation of smaller-sized freight shipments in the domestic market. While the day-to-day is similar to a truckload broker’s day, a successful LTL broker is one who is strong in the following areas: calling customers and prospects, pricing out domestic lanes, speaking with carriers to determine availability, booking trucks to move commodities, scheduling appointments, etc.
