About J.B. Hunt

A J.B. Hunt seller walks into a shipper with the whole menu (intermodal, truckload, LTL, Dedicated Contract Services fleets, final mile, brokerage and managed logistics), reads the prospect's lanes, volumes and freight budget, and proposes a mix of modes. Nearly every opening is a hunter seat: sales development managers find new shippers by cold calling and networking, close and onboard them, then pass the account to internal account management once it matures, while sales development executives go after larger, high-profile shippers whose freight crosses divisions. Business development executives own accounts with a high transportation spend (one of them targets shippers with at least $250K of LTL spend), and business development managers cover Dedicated Contract Services prospects around Cincinnati, Columbus and Indianapolis and territories out of Troy, Michigan and North Kansas City. Twelve of the 20 sales openings are sales development manager seats, each tied to an office (two in Lowell, Arkansas, one of them for corporate flatbed, plus Dallas, Chicago, Atlanta, Pittsburgh, Akron, Dublin, Richmond, West Orange, St. Petersburg and West Des Moines); the one account management role is a Lowell customer experience account manager scored on NPS, award compliance and reply speed for an assigned book. All 20 are in the US, three of the manager postings ask for a year of North American truckload experience inside two to three years of selling, and the executive roles require a clean driving record.
