About Vista Trans Logistics Inc

Vista Trans Logistics (VTL) is a third party freight brokerage specializing in domestic full truckload solutions across all U.S. OTR modes.

The Opportunity:

We’re growing — and looking for a seasoned Senior Freight Broker to lead the launch and expansion of our newest satellite office in Atlanta, GA (Duluth area). This is a unique leadership opportunity for a high-performing logistics professional who is ready to step beyond the traditional broker role and help build something from the ground up. As the first hire in this new market, you’ll have the autonomy to shape the office, drive business development, and recruit, mentor, and lead a highly effective team of sales brokers. Backed by an experienced leadership team and a growth-focused company culture, this role is designed for someone who is passionate about scaling both revenue and people, while positioning themselves for long-term career and financial growth.

This is not an entry-level role.

This candidate will have a proven track record and ability to transition their business. Compensation is negotiable based on your experience and book of business. We offer highly competitive pay, and commission splits.

This is a rare opportunity to join our organization not just as our Lead Freight Broker, but as a true leader in a pivotal role with unlimited growth potential. We’re looking for someone who is driven to build, lead, and make a lasting impact as we continue expanding our footprint and investing in top-tier talent.

What You’ll Do:

  • Lead, manage and grow our Atlanta/Duluth office as we build a team with you
  • Manage and expand your existing book of business
  • Oversee full-cycle logistics operations (pricing, sourcing, execution, customer management)
  • Mentor and develop additional brokers as the team scales
  • Drive new business through strong sales execution and relationship building

What We’re Looking For:

  • Active freight broker with a consistent $7K weekly GP book
  • Strong background in full-cycle logistics management
  • Proven sales ability and customer retention skills
  • Leadership mindset with the ability to build and manage a team
  • Entrepreneurial drive — this is a “build something big” opportunity

What We Offer:

  • Opportunity to run your own office with full leadership & ops support
  • Competitive compensation aggressive commission structure
  • Growth path into senior leadership
  • Back-office support, overseas and after-hours support teams so you can focus on your clients, and your team.
