The Opportunity Start Date: ASAP Who We Are Red Wolf Logistics is a US freight brokerage startup founded by operators who have scaled startups into billion-dollar businesses. Our service lines cover full truckload (dry van, reefer, flatbed), small truckload (sprinter vans, box trucks), partial truckload and LTL. We chase Middle Market shippers ($50M to $750M) who move 50 to 500 loads per week. These are shippers who steadily feed us and value relationships, service, and communication more than price alone. We do not chase the cheapest-quote wins. Neither will you. The WOLF Mentality Will. Underlying drive. Zero surrender. Ownership. Radical accountability. No excuses. Lock In. Disciplined focus on what matters. Ferocity. Relentless aggression toward obstacles and reaching our goals. Grow or Die Our strategy is simple: take every good load you can get and never give them back. Red Wolf operates on a grow‑or‑die principle. Speed to market and a relentless sense of urgency, every single day. Your book grows and skills sharpen month over month, or you are in the wrong seat. We hire, train, compensate, and promote to that standard. People who want to grow love this environment. People who want to coast or clock in and clock out do not last here. Quality of customer and quality of loads beats quantity. Both matter. Sell on Value, Not Price Understanding the shipper's business before we ever talk capacity Solving freight problems competitors will not touch Communicating proactively so the customer never has to chase us Delivering reliability that justifies a premium and earns repeat business If your sales motion depends on undercutting the market, this is not the right role or company for you.
