You’ll be supported through a comprehensive onboarding experience both at our Portland, Maine brewery and within the New Jersey market. We plan for at least two trips to the brewery each year to connect in person with the broader team and spend time immersed in all things Allagash. Additional travel may come up depending on business needs.

This role includes some evening and weekend hours, as well as regular travel throughout the territory. A valid driver’s license is required. The ideal candidate will be based within the territory, including Somerset, Middlesex, Union, Essex, Lower Bergen, or Morris County.
