Commercial Manager – Logistics, Birmingham, c£50k + Car Allowance + Bonus

My client is an established, successful and reputable logistics business delivering integrated transport, warehousing, customs and groupage services. They operate an extensive fleet of owned trucks and trailers and managing more than 1.5 million square feet of warehousing. There has been consistent investment, strong operational performance, and long-standing relationships with major customers across FMCG, retail and beyond.

This is a newly created key commercial role, responsible for driving new business and revenue growth across the Group’s full range of services — transport, warehousing, customs clearance and groupage — for customers across Birmingham and the wider Midlands. Unlike many sales roles where you’re restricted to a single service, you’ll be able to offer customers a genuine end-to-end logistics solution covering transport, warehousing, customs and distribution.

With a clear growth strategy and continued expansion across the UK mainland, the Group is now investing significantly in its commercial capability in the Midlands, including its growing warehousing footprint.

The role: –
• Develop and execute a commercial strategy to drive new business and revenue growth across the Group’s full-service portfolio, including transport, warehousing, customs clearance and groupage.
• Build and manage a strong pipeline of opportunities across a broad range of sectors.
• Identify and convert opportunities spanning the UK pallet network, groupage distribution, full and part-load transport, warehousing and storage solutions, and integrated customs services.
• Establish long-term customer relationships that underpin consistent revenue and margin across multiple service lines.
• Work closely with operations to ensure successful onboarding and scalable account development.
• Contribute to pricing, solution design and commercial structuring to ensure profitable growth across the Group.

The successful candidate will take ownership of building a strong, diversified pipeline across the Group’s service lines, developing lasting customer partnerships and contributing to the continued growth of the wider business.

In the right candidate they are looking for: –
• Proven experience in a commercial or business development role within logistics, transport or supply chain.
• Experience within warehousing or 3PL is highly valued and would be considered a strong advantage.
• Strong understanding of the Birmingham and the wider Midlands logistics market, with an established network.
• A commercially focused professional with the ability to develop and convert opportunities into long-term, multi-service business.
• Experience structuring and negotiating commercially sound solutions across transport, warehousing and customs.
• Credible, relationship-led approach with the ability to operate at both operational and senior stakeholder level.

This is a rare opportunity to take on a commercially significant, multi-service role within a growing logistics group based in Birmingham. For the right individual, it offers the chance to build a high-quality, diversified customer portfolio and develop into a broader commercial role across a fully integrated 3PL business — with strong scope to shape the Group’s growing warehousing offer along the way.
