Full Job Description

Field Sales Executive - El Paso, TX

Locations: El Paso, TX & Juarez, MX and surrounding area

About the Role

The Field Sales Representative US / MX is responsible for driving profitable growth within an assigned territory through new business development, account acquisition, and expansion of Maersk Logistics Services solutions. This is a territory-based hunter role focused on identifying, developing, and closing opportunities across the United States and Mexico. The primary focus is small and medium-sized businesses, while also pursuing select larger opportunities that align with the territory strategy and company objectives.

The role represents the full Maersk Logistics Services portfolio, with a focus on growing logistics revenue through:

  • Specialized LTL Asset Network

  • Cross-Border Transportation (US / MX)

  • Freight Forwarding (Air & Ocean)

  • Integrated Supply Chain Solutions

This is a KPI-driven sales role measured through both activity and financial performance. Success is achieved through prospecting, face-to-face customer engagement, pipeline development, revenue generation, gross profit growth, and new customer acquisition.

This is not a hand-holding role. The Field Sales Representative is expected to independently manage their territory, prioritize opportunities, develop customer relationships, and execute against performance expectations with minimal supervision.

  • Conduct customer discovery to identify supply chain needs and position tailored solutions across transportation, warehousing, cross-border, and international logistics services

  • Sell the full logistics portfolio by aligning solutions to customer objectives and operational requirements

  • Drive face-to-face customer engagement and relationship development to support both new logo acquisition and account expansion

  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Operations, Product, Pricing, Procurement, and Customer Experience teams to develop and close opportunities

  • Maintain accurate CRM data, including pipeline tracking, activity reporting, and opportunity management

  • Consistently achieve or exceed defined KPIs, including activity levels, pipeline health, revenue, and gross profit targets

  • Operate with a high degree of ownership and autonomy in a KPI-driven, hunter-style role focused primarily on business development
