Strategic New Business Manager - Logistics Service Providers

Qualification & Deal Conversion Once an opportunity is created, you'll own the commercial process end to end and drive it toward a clear decision. You'll work closely with Commercial Strategy to translate customer transport data into a strong operational and commercial case for electrification.

• Lead discovery and needs assessment with operational and senior commercial stakeholders.
• Shape the electrification roadmap and feasibility case together with Commercial Strategy.
• Coordinate customer data collection and translate analysis into a compelling executive-level business case.
• Qualify opportunities rigorously against lane, volume, network, timing and decision-making criteria.
• Develop proposals and commercial structures that create meaningful value for both the customer and JUNA.
• Own commercial negotiations and navigate stakeholder approval processes.
• Maintain momentum through clear next steps, stakeholder alignment and disciplined pipeline management.
• Close strategic deals and ensure a structured handover into Customer Success and post-sale delivery.

How We Measure Success

• Strategic opportunities created within the defined focus-account portfolio.
• Qualified pipeline value and qualification rate.
• Strategic deals won and contracted deployment potential.

What that looks like In the beginning (0-6 months):

• Ramp Up Quickly: Build a deep understanding of JUNA's product, commercial model, qualification criteria and priority use cases across logistics service provider networks.
• Build Account Plans: Take ownership of your first focus accounts and create clear strategies for how to access, qualify and convert them.
• Activate Your Network: Re-engage your existing logistics service provider relationships and establish access to senior decision makers across your target accounts.
• Create Opportunities: Turn account insight into concrete discovery conversations, data exchanges and qualified sales opportunities.

Looking ahead (6 months-1 year):

• Own the Full Cycle: Independently run complex strategic opportunities from account strategy through commercial close.
• Convert Focus Accounts: Build a track record of converting selected high-value accounts into structural JUNA partnerships.
• Become the LSP Expert: Develop a strong point of view on logistics service provider business models, transport network dynamics, buying processes, electrification needs and the decision makers required to scale electric truck deployments.
• Build a Repeatable Playbook: Turn successful account strategies into a scalable approach that can be reused across similar customers in the industry.
