- Track follow-ups and ensure opportunities are not lost due to lack of communication or follow-through.
- Provide regular updates on activity, customer engagement and qualified opportunities.

- Interested in international business, transportation and logistics.
- Previous sales, customer service or freight forwarding experience is an asset, but not required.
- Willingness to learn and grow within the international logistics industry.
- Strong written and verbal English communication skills.

The goal is to develop someone who can confidently manage customer relationships, understand international shipping requirements and contribute to GMI's continued business growth.
