Manager of Retail Sales

Job Responsibility:

Retail Rainmaker Wanted: AlgaeCal, the world's leading online bone health supplement for 20 years, is now seeking a visionary Manager of Retail Sales to pioneer our expansion into retail stores market channel.

We've cultivated a dedicated following with the only calcium in the world clinically supported to increase bone density. We achieved this with top-level digital marketing skills and an annual digital marketing budget of $6 million. Your mission? Develop an unbeatable strategy to ensure our products become a staple on every suitable store shelf.

Our supplements aren't just any old calcium product; they're a high-end, clinically supported solution to bone loss, exclusively sourced from plants—not rocks. It's a living whole food versus inert rock. It's a multi-nutrient versus single element calciums. It's proven to increase bone density in adults where regular calciums can only slow annual bone loss. And finally, we guarantee customer results via before and after bone density scans. These distinctions sets us apart in the otherwise boring calcium supplement market, and your role will be to develop retail partnerships that appreciate this unique value for their customers…and their bottom line.

So, if you're excited by this challenge and ready to make a significant impact in the lives of MILLIONS of people, let's talk.

You'll love it here:

• You'll be working with a great team. The B2B team at AlgaeCal are a close-knit group of go-getters, entrepreneurs, and visionaries - all driven by a single mission: to ensure AlgaeCal products are flying off the shelves all the way from Amarillo to Anchorage.
• The sky's the limit. With the right spirit, attitude, and mentality there's no limit to what you can achieve at AlgaeCal. It's pure, unfiltered meritocracy here.

• Top-notch negotiating skills. When it comes to shelf real estate, you've got the Midas touch - turning every discussion into gold.
• Proven experience of breaking into the retail market with a natural health supplement or other consumer packaged goods. We'll expect to be wowed by your black book of contacts from big box stores.
• 3+ years of retail experience in the supplement health space . From developing winning teams to boosting sales and rolling out groundbreaking products, you've done it all. We'll expect your resume to show that you've successfully shifted truckloads of product in Costco, Vitamin Shoppe, Whole Foods, and similar stores.
• You're well-versed in the world of dietary supplements , understanding every facet from production pipelines to regulatory frameworks and the pulse of consumer demand.
• A brain the size of Jupiter. Data isn't just numbers for you; it's a gold mine of insights. You're adept at breaking down intricate datasets and leveraging business intelligence tools to craft forward-thinking strategies.
• A resume that demonstrates your prowess in dissecting financial data to uncover growth prospects, gauge the viability of fresh business endeavors, and a staunch commitment to optimizing P&L.
• A thick portfolio that demonstrates your mastery of all-things retail. Sorry, but if you have to Google what an ‘endcap' is; or don't know what F.I.F.O. stands for, this isn't the position for you.
• An encyclopedic knowledge of ERP and EDI. You pity the fools who try to do business without these tools!
