Regional Sales Director
Location: Field
Territory: Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont
Schedule: Monday-Friday
As a Regional Sales Director at Downeast Cider, you will lead a team of sales representatives towards achieving Downeast’s mission of becoming the #1 hard cider company in America. You’ll be spreading the good unfiltered word about our innovative portfolio of craft hard cider.
Your mission is to execute against revenue, volume, and distribution goals within our Home Base region (MA & RI). This is accomplished by hiring, training, and motivating your sales team and by building and leveraging relationships with our wholesaler partners.
What you’ll do:
Build A Strong Team
We aspire to build an enduring company with a world-class brand, known as an extraordinary place to work. It’s been 12 years since our first batches of unfiltered cider were fermented in the dorms of Bates College, Maine, and while we’ve gained 231 new teammates and 1.6 million cases of tasty drinks - with a growing assortment beyond cider - we remain 100% founder-owned. We’re a scrappy team that enjoys the hard work of creating a company because we get to work on fun things with people we like.
We like to hire the way we like our cider, unfiltered. With the understanding that we can learn and grow from each other’s differences, we are proud to hire regardless of gender, race, nationality, religion, sexual orientation, disability, age, or anything else that makes us who we are.
