Senior Account Manager, Global Freight (Air & Ground)

Job Description:

Senior Account Manager, Global Freight (Air & Ground)

Position Summary:

As Senior Account Manager, you will serve as the single point of ownership for one of Allegro's largest and most strategic accounts, spanning both international and domestic air and ground freight. You will lead all aspects of the relationship — from day-to-day client communication and reporting to invoicing accuracy and hands-on service execution — while directly managing a dedicated team of employees supporting the account. This role requires the judgment of a senior operator: you are equally comfortable in a client business review, on the phone resolving a service exception, reviewing a freight invoice for accuracy, or coaching your team through a high-volume shipping week. You will act as the voice of the customer internally while partnering closely with operations, carriers, customs/compliance resources, and finance to deliver a consistent, high-quality freight experience across every mode and lane.

• Build trusted, multi-level relationships with client stakeholders, from day-to-day operational contacts through senior leadership
• Lead regular business reviews covering service performance, cost, capacity, and continuous improvement opportunities
• Proactively communicate shipment status, disruptions, and exceptions before they become client-facing issues

Lead the Account Team

• Directly manage, coach, and develop the team of employees dedicated to servicing the account
• Set clear performance expectations, conduct regular check-ins, and manage scheduling/coverage across shifts and lanes
• Build team capability across international documentation, domestic dispatch, and ground/air transfer processes
• Foster a culture of accountability, urgency, and customer-first execution within the account team

Oversee Freight Execution — Air & Ground, International & Domestic

• Coordinate end-to-end execution of international and domestic air and ground freight movements in support of the account
• Partner with carriers, gateways, and internal operations to ensure on-time pickup, transit, and delivery across all modes
• Ensure smooth handling of customs, documentation, and cross-border requirements for international shipments
