That's why our products are made using carefully selected, whole-food ingredients. And our people are just as real as our ingredients – authentic, collaborative, and dedicated to fostering a workplace that inspires individuals and teams to reach their full potential.About the TeamRetail Operations sits at the intersection of Sales, Supply Chain, and Finance – making sure every retail and distributor partner we work with, including KeHE, UNFI, and the broker and 3PL networks that support our accounts (such as Acosta, Advantage Solutions, CROSSMARK, and Progressive), gets what they need to keep our products moving without fines, chargebacks, or fulfillment delays. This role owns that operational backbone: compliance, EDI, deductions, and the reporting that keeps the whole channel healthy as we grow into new retail accounts.What We Are Looking ForWe're looking for an experienced retail operations leader who's actually worked with distributors like KeHE and UNFI and brokers or 3PLs like Acosta, Advantage Solutions, CROSSMARK, or Progressive – someone who knows how their compliance and scorecard programs work in practice, has gone toe-to-toe with deduction disputes, and knows how to work with broker networks to keep new and existing retail accounts running smoothly. You're comfortable owning EDI transaction flows end to end, you catch compliance issues before they turn into fines, and you know how to dig into a scorecard miss and actually fix what's causing it – not just report on it.
