This is a chance to bring real passion to exciting brands that consumers already love, and grow your career as you do it.

- In tandem with our broker partners, Create and execute retailer go-to-market strategies and solutions, adjusting quickly as market and competitive conditions shift.
- Provide ongoing tracking, analysis, and measurement of business trends and growth opportunities — turning data into timely, actionable decisions rather than after-the-fact observations.
- Resolve customer service issues quickly and decisively while building strong, trust-based relationships.
- Own and deliver against P&L targets — including net revenue, gross margin, and trade spend — to ensure financial objectives are achieved in a competitive, velocity-challenged category.
- Forecast shipment and consumption patterns aligned to Naterra's Fiscal Year planning calendar, adjusting proactively as new data signals emerge.
- Manage and analyze trade funds with rigor and urgency to efficiently drive the business and protect margin.
