The ideal candidate will bring 5-10 years of experience, a strong network in retail and food service, and a proven ability to drive revenue growth. This role is open to both seasoned sales leaders and "boots-on-the-ground" hunter types who are comfortable with door-to-door and field-based selling.

  • Track performance metrics and adjust strategies to optimize results.
  • Represent the brand at trade shows, industry events, and client meetings.

Ideal Candidate Profile:

  • 5-10 years of sales experience in the food and beverage industry.
  • Experience in a senior leadership role with direct team management.
  • Strong network in retail, grocery, and/or food service sectors.
  • Demonstrated success in scaling sales and driving revenue growth.
  • Comfortable with field-based sales, including door knocking and territory development.
  • Excellent communication, negotiation, and strategic thinking skills.
  • Bachelor's degree required; MBA preferred.

Compensation & Benefits:

  • Competitive base salary + performance-based incentives
  • Medical, dental, vision, and life insurance
  • 401(k) with company matching
  • Car and phone reimbursement plans
  • Flexible work arrangements (hybrid or remote)
  • Direct exposure to executive leadership in a high-growth environment
