This is a once in a lifetime opportunity to join an exciting new startup as a Co‑Founder, where it's not investors that get early the equity stakes, but the team members who do the work to launch and grow the company. This role is for EQUITY earning position in the first months. Plus commission on your clients, so equity + commission at the start. Then, it will transition to a traditional base salary + commission. You can start part‑time or full‑time depending on your current capacity.

• Identify, pitch, and land wholesale and retail accounts (Regional and local retail, gyms, cafes, wellness shops, etc.)
• Build out outreach lists, email cadences, and pitch materials
• Manage buyer relationships and category manager follow‑ups
• Coordinate wholesale order flow, pricing, minimums, and delivery timelines
• Lead trade show or buyer events (Expo West, Fancy Food, etc. if applicable)
• Create playbooks for reps, brokers, or distributors as we scale
• Sync with marketing on campaigns and sampling strategy for retail launch
• Have 3+ years experience in retail/wholesale sales, ideally in CPG, nutrition, wellness, or food/bev
• Know how to get into stores, keep buyers happy, and build reorder momentum
• Have a working knowledge of wholesale margins, pricing ladders, and account management
• Thrive in high‑autonomy roles and love building things from scratch
• Want to be on the founding team of something big and mission‑driven
• Have a passion for performance nutrition, plant‑based innovation, or functional food
