Their main duties include coordinating the export of goods, ensuring compliance with international trade regulations, preparing shipping documentation, and liaising with clients and logistics providers. They play a crucial role in expanding a company's market reach and ensuring smooth export processes. Strong knowledge of global markets, trade laws, and logistics is essential for this role.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as an export executive?

To thrive as an Export Executive, you need a solid understanding of international trade regulations, export documentation, and supply chain management, typically supported by a degree in business or international trade. Familiarity with ERP systems, export compliance software, and trade management tools is often required. Strong negotiation, problem-solving, and cross-cultural communication skills help build and maintain relationships with overseas clients. These skills and qualifications are crucial for ensuring smooth export operations, regulatory compliance, and successful expansion into global markets.

What are some common challenges faced by export executives and how can they be managed effectively?

Ocean Freight Sales Executive - Ocean Export, Agricultural Commodities

Los Angeles, CA • On-site

$80 - $100/hr

Posted 22 days ago

Key responsibilities

  • Grow and expand a portfolio of Southern California Agricultural Commodities exporter accounts.

  • Track overall account and portfolio performance.

  • Partner with procurement and account management teams to build more competitive service proposals for customers.

Job description

If you sell ocean export to Southern California Agricultural Commodities exporters through the Port of Los Angeles, this role keeps your accounts attributed to you and your commission uncapped. Year 1 commission runs at 25% of gross profit with no cap, and sunset rates keep paying you on retained accounts across the first three Account Years.

Skypace serves shippers whose freight programs depend on consistent execution across repeated ocean movements, multiple service providers, and constant commercial pressure on cost, timing, and space allocation. For these companies, performance is shaped by how systematically pricing, allocation, and milestone visibility move alongside the shipment itself.

Today, this model supports more than 150 customers across 18 countries through direct integrations with top 10 ocean carriers, among them MSC, Maersk, CMA CGM, COSCO, and Hapag‑Lloyd. The operating environment optimizes shipper performance across freight cost, communication discipline, error reduction, booking speed, and visibility into how each participating party performs against commitment.

Operational data accumulates as a clean, structured record that supports continuous process improvement today and becomes foundational as supply chains integrate AI‑driven decision agents into planning, execution, and exception handling.

Why this role exists

This role builds out Skypace's Agricultural Commodities ocean export portfolio through the Port of Los Angeles, serving Southern California exporters shipping to markets including Indonesia, Hai Phong, and the Philippines. It is positioned for a sales professional who already operates inside the Southern California Agricultural Commodities export ecosystem and whose book benefits from broader carrier coverage, faster pricing response, and reliable handling across the shipment lifecycle.

Work hours: Full‑time, 40 hours/week, Pacific time zone

Experience: 3+ years (36 months)

Incentive: Year 1: 25% of GP, no cap. Sunset: 15% (Y2), 11% (Y3+). Bonus accelerator: 10% of GP on three highest GP months.

Qualifications
  • 3+ years of ocean freight sales with verifiable client relationships among Southern California Agricultural Commodities exporters
  • Lane fluency out of the Port of Los Angeles
  • Reefer and bulk‑ag handling, phytosanitary and fumigation coordination
  • Fluency in export freight vocabulary (booking and equipment allocation at origin, AES and EEI filing, free time and detention, House BL versus Master BL, rolling and cutoff management)
  • Decision‑maker access at two or more accounts
Responsibilities
  • Grow and expand a portfolio of Southern California Agricultural Commodities exporter accounts
  • Track overall account and portfolio performance
  • Partner with the procurement and account management teams to build more competitive service proposals for customers across pricing, technology, and scale
  • Track attribution in CRM from day one of activation, with account managers and operations owning day‑to‑day client management and delivery
Skills
  • Agricultural commodities export, reefer and bulk‑ag handling
  • CRM operation
  • AES and EEI export filing
How the operation runs

Skypace operates on a proactive monitoring discipline. Milestones are tracked through live data across the entire shipment ecosystem. When a deviation in schedule, cost, or capacity surfaces within the operating environment, Skypace initiates the next operational action before the client encounters the problem.

The instant‑quote and online booking engine compresses commercial response time from days to minutes. Carrier MQC commitments hold during peak season, the period when allocation decides whether a shipper’s seasonal cycle preserves its margin or absorbs unplanned cost.

The quote engine surfaces every accessorial at the quote stage, including peak surcharges, GRI, port congestion fees, drayage components, and specialty equipment or reefer plug charges where applicable. The number the client sees at quote stands on the invoice. Skypace treats pricing integrity as a commercial discipline that holds from quote through to settlement.

Skypace operates in full compliance with international freight forwarding regulations.

Maxton Shipping Inc DBA Skypace is a registered NVOCC (Non‑Vessel Operating Common Carrier) under FMC License 027662.
