Helping you find…

We understand the need to employ a salesperson who creates a significant return on your investment, not just covers their costs.

The vast majority of candidates are/have…

  • Working within the freight industry
  • New business sales professionals
  • Successful, overachieving people
  • (based on billings in the last three years)
  • Self-motivated and autonomous
  • A stable work history
  • Experience in key trade lanes
  • Realistic expectations
  • Transactional or solutions-driven
  • Selling multimodal freight, warehousing and value-added services

When entrusted with a senior appointment we create bespoke solutions. It is essential that you choose a company that understands your industry, your business, what you are trying to achieve and a company which can deliver the right quality of candidate. This is what you can expect from Freight Executives.

Account management opportunities are less common in the marketplace.  

We will spend time understanding your key verticals/sectors, the type of freight with which you deal and, if applicable, the specific countries and trade lanes in which you operate.

The middle management in any company now is the senior management of the future.

We understand how important it is to employ high-quality managers across every area of the business.

We deal with Operations Managers, Sales Managers, Human Resources Managers, Pricing Managers and Procurement Managers.

Operational staff are the backbone of every business. We strive to help you find loyal and knowledgeable employees who have the ability to process movements effectively and liaise with clients in a professional manner.

Senior appointments

A retained assignment is a project-based recruitment process which is specifically designed for clients who want to fill businesscritical positions in a short time. 

An up-front payment ensures that our highly experienced Senior Appointments team deliver a highly focused approach, working to agreed deadlines, lead by the senior consultant. Once we have discussed a detailed and comprehensive brief we then reach out to our network to find the very best person for the job. 

We work discreetly and confidentially with clients and candidates using various triedand- tested methods to speak to as many strong candidates as possible who match the criteria. We then create a shortlist of only the best potential candidates for the position, based on the bespoke brief. After an agreed number of interviews with the shortlisted candidate you should be in a position to offer the very best person on the marketplace. As long as the package offered is as discussed, and if we have done our job properly, they should accept without hesitation. 

We have a very high level of success in finding the right person for each assignment and we look forward to assisting you too.

This is our most frequently used service and allows for a strong executive search service with no up-front costs. Our team uses an extensive array of methods to find the very best potential candidates on the market.

We regularly use referrals to find the
hard-to-reach candidates who may not be listed in the usual sources. We spend a great deal of time pre-qualifying and understanding each candidate’s current situation, their reasons for potentially leaving their current place of work and what is important to them in a new opportunity. 

When it comes to candidates we are very selective in whom we work with and have strict criteria about what constitutes a highquality candidate. This can be discussed with you at an early stage. Rest assured that Freight Executives will find you the best person on the market.
