We are seeking an experienced Account Manager to lead, manage, and grow our DOD and Government freight operations. We are already active with multiple government agencies and moving freight today; this role exists to bring stronger leadership, structure, and operational discipline to the account portfolio while supporting continued growth.

- Understand and navigate government freight requirements, processes, and timelines
- Identify opportunities to expand freight volume and grow accounts within government agencies
- Help build structure, processes, and best practices as the government freight team scales
- Provide leadership and accountability across internal teams supporting gov freight
Qualifications
- Proven experience managing DOD or Government freight (required)
- Strong understanding of how government freight differs from standard commercial freight
- Experience working with federal agencies and government contracting environments
- Operationally strong — able to connect pricing, execution, and service outcomes
- Confident communicator with a professional, solutions-oriented approach
- Comfortable working independently in a remote environment
Why This Role
- Existing government freight is already in place — this is a build and grow opportunity
- Direct impact on operations, customer satisfaction, and future team expansion
