The Role We are looking for a grocery channel specialist to own Savia USA's national and regional grocery account growth. This person understands how to navigate category reviews, planogram cycles, slotting, and promotional programming at major chains like Kroger, Albertsons, Whole Foods, Publix, or comparable banners. You know the rhythm of grocery selling and have the buyer relationships to open doors and get on shelf. You will report directly to the VP of Sales and Marketing with no layers between you and decisions.
What You Will Do
- Open and manage national and regional grocery chain accounts from initial pitch through purchase order and reset execution
- Navigate category review cycles, planogram submissions, and slotting requirements at major banners
- Build and present data-driven sell stories using velocity stats, IRI or SPINS data, and category trends
- Work with broker partners and retail distributors to drive in-store execution and promotional compliance
- Manage promotional calendars and trade spend in coordination with internal operations and finance
- Attend trade shows, buyer summits, and ECRM events to advance account relationships
- Manage a rolling pipeline and report account status and forecast directly to the VP of Sales and Marketing

- 5+ years of CPG sales experience with a clear focus on the grocery and natural channel
- Existing buyer relationships at national or regional grocery chains — this is non-negotiable
- Proven track record of selling through category reviews, securing shelf placement, and driving velocity post-launch
- Experience working with grocery brokers and retail distributors
- Familiarity with IRI, SPINS, or Nielsen data and how to build a compelling category story from it
- Beverage category experience strongly preferred — functional beverages, better-for-you, RTD, or juice
- Self-starter who manages their own pipeline, travel, and trade calendar without needing oversight
- Comfortable building and presenting sell sheets, planogram proposals, and promotional programming decks

- Base Salary: $70,000 to $90,000 depending on experience
- Commission: Performance-based, uncapped
- Bonus: Account milestone and annual performance bonuses
