Description

Why Summit Beverage?

As a Relief Sales Representative, you'll step in to run sales routes when a teammate is out, and spend the rest of your time merchandising in our key accounts. You'll learn every route in the market, work with a wide range of customers (retail, bars, restaurants), and build the experience that can lead to a route of your own.

What You'll Do

When covering a sales route:

• Run the route efficiently, calling on each account on schedule and spotting new sales opportunities

• Present products, take orders and close sales to keep customers stocked and hit volume and distribution goals

• Manage inventory levels, collect payments and keep route records accurate and up to date

• Build displays, execute ad features and perform resets that beat the competition

• Resolve customer questions and issues quickly and professionally

When there's no route to cover:

• Merchandise in stores: stock, rotate and face product on shelves, in coolers and on displays

• Work back stock and check pricing, rotation and placement

• Pull outdated or damaged product to keep our quality standards high

What We Offer

• Monday–Friday schedule: weekends off

• Company vehicle/mileage reimbursement

• A path to your own route: learn the whole market and grow your sales career

• Variety: different routes, customers and challenges each week

• Competitive Pay & Great Insurance Benefits

• Retirement with Company Match

• Paid Time Off

Requirements

What You'll Need

• Valid Montana driver's license and a good driving record

• Sales experience, ideally in beer, wine or beverage (a bachelor's degree is a plus, and equivalent experience counts)

• Merchandising experience in grocery or retail is a plus.

• Ability to lift 35–55lbs. routinely (up to 75lbs. occasionally) and stand, bend and kneel throughout the day

• Comfortable traveling between accounts in all Montana weather, with occasional 8–10 hour days
