About the role

We are seeking an experienced Business Development & Sales Specialist to drive growth across retail and foodservice channels throughout a multi-state Midwest territory.

Manage and grow existing customer and distributor relationships. Partner with distributors through sales meetings, product demonstrations, training, and ride-alongs. Drive product placement, merchandising, promotions, and sales growth. Analyze sales data and CRM reports to identify market opportunities and track territory performance. Collaborate with internal production and customer support teams to ensure excellent service.

Before you apply

Applying takes about a minute. These four things decide how fast it moves after that.

Your profile is current

It's what we read first. Occupations, seniority and locations matter more than a long history.

Two examples you can talk through

Not a portfolio — just two pieces of work where you can explain the decisions and what you'd change.

A number in mind

What you're on now and what would make you move. We negotiate better when we know both.

Your notice period

Employers plan around it, and it's the question that stalls offers most often.

Once you apply, someone reads it and calls you before anything reaches the employer — usually within two working days.
