Client Partner

Location: Remote (US & Canada)     Reports to: VP of Sales

Portless is a tech-enabled 3PL that helps DTC brands ship directly from Asia to customers worldwide in 5-9 days. We're transforming how ecommerce brands think about fulfillment by eliminating the traditional 60-90 day ocean freight model and replacing it with faster, more flexible, cash-flow friendly logistics.

We're venture backed and growing fast. Our customers include brands shipping everything from apparel to consumer electronics, and we operate in 55+ countries. We're on a mission to make global fulfillment as seamless as domestic shipping.

We're looking for a Client Partner to drive expansion revenue within our highest-priority merchant accounts. This is a strategic sales role focused on growing our largest and highest-potential relationships.

You'll own a portfolio of 10-15 accounts and be responsible for one thing: growth. Our merchant's growth is our only metric. When they win, we win. Your job is to deeply understand each merchant's business and find ways to help them grow, whether that's improving their core operations, winning share of wallet from other 3PLs, expanding into new international markets, or activating additional Portless services.

This isn't a client success role. We have a separate CSM team that handles day-to-day support. You'll partner with them, but your focus is expansion revenue. If you have a consulting mindset, love solving complex business problems, and want to own high-value relationships at a fast-growing company, join us.
