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- Pull outdated or damaged product to keep our quality standards high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

What You'll Need

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