This is not an entry level position, however, if you have significant sales or account management experience in a related industry and a willingness to learn beverage sales, please send in a resume and references.

Compensation package includes base salary + commission, cell phone and car allowance. Your sales targets will be set with your territory sales manager each month, with a tiered commission based on achieving your established sales goals.
