ROLE SUMMARY
We are seeking a driven and entrepreneurial Market Manager in New Jersey to join a growing team. This full-time, field-based position will focus on account-level sales execution and brand building across on-premise (60%), oX-premise (30%), and marketing/events (10%). The role starts with a retail-focused push to secure distribution and availability, evolving into a more on-premise and marketing-heavy role as the brand grows. We’re a one-brand company with a lean, agile team—this is not a distributor management role. It’s a hands-on, execution-focused position built for someone who wants to build a market, not just manage it.
KEY RESPONSIBILITIES
- Lead our presence across New Jersey, prioritizing premium on-premise and high-volume oX-premise accounts
- Open and grow account relationships through regular outreach, education, tastings, and event support
- Execute in-market sales and marketing initiatives—menu placements, features, displays, samplings, and brand activations
- Partner with the internal marketing team to localize national campaigns and deploy creative assets in the field
- Activate and manage consumer-facing events and local brand partnerships
- Track placements, depletions, pricing, and key KPIs to measure success and inform strategy
- Represent the brand with integrity, urgency, and passion
PREFERRED QUALIFICATIONS
- Experience working with Allied Beverage Group (supplier or distributor side preferred)
- Reside in New Jersey and have strong knowledge of the state’s on-premise landscape
- Beverage alcohol foundations—bartending, distributor or supplier sales experience, and familiarity with the three-tier system
- Demonstrated success in sales, marketing, or relationship management
- Strong communication, presentation, and organizational skills
- Ability to work independently in a fast-paced, entrepreneurial environment
- Must be 21+
COMPENSATION & BENEFITS
- Base Salary: $90,000 – $120,000 (commensurate with experience)
- Bonus Opportunity: 20% – 30% of base salary based on On-Target Revenue Earnings (OTRE)
- $500 monthly Health Allowance to support personal health insurance
- $250 monthly Car Allowance
- Reimbursable T&E Budget for account support, meetings, and market activations.
- Robust Marketing Budget to support local campaigns and in-store/on-premise execution
- Access to Custom Merchandise and POS to support trade marketing and consumer engagement
- Flexible Remote Work Environment with the opportunity to lead and scale a growing premium brand
- Please note: We do not currently offer a 401(k) plan or matching benefit as part of this compensation model
