What We're Looking For

  • 3+ years of CPG experience
  • Background in Trade Marketing, Revenue Growth Management, Sales Finance, Category Management, or Trade Promotions
  • Strong analytical skills with Excel and syndicated data (Circana, NielsenIQ, etc.)
  • Experience working with retailer portals or trade promotion management systems is a plus
  • Self-starter who enjoys solving problems and improving processes

Why Join?

  • Newly created role with the opportunity to build the trade function
  • High visibility with Sales leadership
  • Influence how millions of trade dollars are invested
