• Help identify and pursue new sales opportunities across wholesale, retail, foodservice, food manufacturing, distribution, and related food channels.
• Make outbound calls, conduct prospect research, send follow‑up emails, and help develop a pipeline of potential customer and supplier relationships.
• Partner closely with Logistics, Purchasing, Supply Chain, Finance, Operations, and Sales teams to help ensure deals are executed accurately and on time.

• Support negotiation preparation by gathering relevant customer, supplier, pricing, freight, and market information.
• Assist with customer quotes, sales summaries, market notes, reporting, and internal tracking tools.
• Help resolve service issues quickly by staying ahead of delays, miscommunication, order changes, or execution gaps.
• Develop the commercial instincts, market knowledge, and relationship skills needed to eventually manage accounts or a book of business.
• Operate with urgency, adaptability, and ownership in a high‑volume, fast‑moving environment.

Qualifications
