Ready to work with an industry leader in a booming market? We are an innovation company providing post-harvest equipment and solutions to the Cannabis and Hemp industry.

We are growing and are looking to add a Territory Manager – Emerging and Uncovered Markets role to our Sales Team. Your role will be to identify, service and ultimately, own the customer through calling on retailers and commercial producers in uncovered and/or emerging markets.

The focus will be to maximize the company’s distribution of products and services through retailer identification, education/training/coaching retail sales reps, product demonstrations (potentially), in-store marketing, motivate/incentivize and relationship-building efforts. This role will require the ability to define a territory (uncovered or emerging), identify areas of opportunity in both existing and new customers, and lead regional trade show and vendor day events. The incumbent will be flexible to work in a grey area at times, and be willing to cover off/set up emerging markets prior to handing off to a permanent local position – at which time their next adventure begins!

Significant travel will be required; the role will be hands-on and require technical selling abilities and heavy lifting of equipment at times.
