Company: Logilink Solutions
Location: Hybrid (Office + Field-Based, No Work From Home)
Employment Type: Full-Time
ABOUT THE ROLE
Logilink Solutions is hiring a Business Development Specialist – Logistics & Workforce Solutions to drive new clients, contracts, and revenue growth across North America.
This hybrid role combines:
- Office-based strategy – planning, pipeline management, bid/RFP support
- Field-based client hunting – site visits, meetings, tours, networking
You’ll sell both staffing & workforce solutions and logistics/delivery services, while also helping us identify, pursue, and track opportunities on bidding and procurement platforms. This is a role for a true hunter who enjoys building relationships, working on contracts, and closing high-impact B2B deals.
(Note: This is a hybrid (office + field) position and not a work-from-home role. When you’re not in the office, you’re expected to be in the field meeting prospects and clients.)
ABOUT LOGILINK SOLUTIONS
Logilink Solutions is a logistics operations and workforce solutions partner serving logistics, warehousing, transportation, manufacturing, and light industrial sectors across North America.
We operate in two integrated lines of business:
1.) Workforce Solutions (Logilink Staffing)

- Drivers, warehouse associates, general labour, and support roles
2.) Logistics & Delivery Solutions

- Focused on keeping freight and last-mile operations safe, on time, and efficient
We are also active on multiple bidding and procurement platforms, where we monitor, qualify, and respond to RFPs, RFQs, tenders, EOIs, and vendor registrations that align with our logistics and workforce capabilities.
We’re in a strong growth phase, expanding both our staffing and logistics services and our contract portfolio. This role is a key part of that growth.
