The Role

As more Americans turn to cannabis for well-being, we are looking to grow our team to help us bring additional safe, trusted products to even more consumers and channels across the country.

This hybrid role blends sales strategy and merchandising execution, focusing on increasing brand visibility, securing prime placements, and expanding our footprint in the market. The Account Executive is a sales expert to all our channel partners, providing insights, guidance, and support to maximize sales potential. You are the perfect fit for this role if you possess a go-getter mentality, are tenacious, and love solving problems with a strong desire to succeed.

The ideal candidate lives within the Chicago city limits and has the ability to travel up to 100% in market. You must provide your own reliable transportation and are eligible for our car stipend / reimbursement program.
