Job Details
Summary:

An entry-level sales manager in charge of a significant piece of business that is responsible for managing multiple distributors, 3 New Belgium Rangers and key account relationships in both the on and off premise channels. There are three components of this job: distributor management, people development, market development & account nurturing. The successful candidate will be required to be located in the North/Northwest suburbs outside Chicago (Glenview, Schaumburg, Arlington Heights, Palatine).

People Development:

Responsible for overseeing development plans for all people under his/her supervision including personal initiatives, annual reviews, quarterly progress reports and skill development days.

Builds strong partnerships with all top 100 key accounts on and off-premise (aka “spreads the love” and establishes a win/win approach to growing the retailer’s business) and performs regular business reviews with the top 5-10 accounts twice a year.
