ROLE OVERVIEW

As an Independent Freight Agent with R.B. Humphreys, you will build and manage your own book of business while operating under our established authority.

WHAT WE OFFER

  • Full back-office support so you can focus on sales
  • Access to our asset-based division for additional capacity options

  • No DAT or Truckstop load board fees — save $1,200–$3,600 annually
  • Dedicated agent support and mentorship from an experienced team
  • Company-supplied email domain for professional credibility
  • Unsaturated agent markets — room to grow without internal competition
  • Temperature-controlled freight specialization in a differentiated niche

COMPENSATION

Competitive commission structure with transparent terms discussed during onboarding. Earnings are directly tied to the business you build — there is no ceiling.

Up to $20k sign-on bonus for qualified operators.

WHO WE'RE LOOKING FOR

  • Experienced freight brokers (no MC authority required)
  • Sales professionals ready to build an independent freight business
  • Entrepreneurs who value long-term partnership and relationship-driven business
  • Self-starters with an existing book of business in freight
  • Must have an operating brokerage or fleet operation

KEY RESPONSIBILITIES

  • Prospect, develop, and manage freight shipping accounts across the Eastern U.S.
  • Match shipper freight with appropriate carrier capacity using R.B. Humphreys' asset-based division and brokerage network
  • Build and maintain long-term customer relationships across a variety of freight segments, leveraging R.B. Humphreys' deep expertise in temperature-controlled transportation when opportunities arise.
  • Negotiate rates and service agreements with shippers and carriers
  • Communicate proactively with customers on load status, issues, and solutions
  • Work independently while collaborating with the R.B. Humphreys operations and support team

ABOUT R.B. HUMPHREYS
