Job description
Business Development Manager
About the job
A family-owned premium seafood producer is hiring a Business Development Manager to drive new-account growth. The company is coming off a record year. This is a phone-first hunter role reporting to the President. You'll prospect restaurants, distributors, wholesalers, and retailers who buy from a competitor today, and win them over through persistent outreach and strong objection handling. You'll also take over and grow a portfolio of loyal smaller accounts that carry the company's highest commission opportunity. Seafood experience isn't required, and product training is provided. What matters is the drive to prospect every day.
