Ben and David have been working together for nearly a decade to find accessible solutions to bring the benefits of digestive health to as many consumers as possible. OLIPOP is a deliciously refreshing tonic that is crafted with prebiotics, botanicals, and natural plant fiber to support your microbiome and benefit digestive health. We're on a mission to provide an affordable, delicious alternative to soda that delivers leading-edge health benefits to mainstream consumers. OUR TEAM At Olipop our values lead the way we create our products, engage with each other, and interact with our community. While we’re invested in our product, we’re equally invested in personal development. We’re tightly knit, we’re genuine and we’re always pushing the envelope to do a better job than we did the day before. Our team is also fully remote, requiring us to be resourceful, creative and collaborative to support our fast-moving business. To best serve our diverse community of customers, we also seek to recruit and include people with a diversity of abilities, backgrounds, and cultures. WHAT YOU’LL NEED Working at a start-up can be as much a personal journey as it is a professional one. To succeed at a company like Olipop, you must be comfortable with failing, learning, and adapting. You need to be curious, optimistic, and able to find a way when it seems impossible. You must be confident enough to express your ideas but humble and open to learning from your experiences and from others. If this is the approach you take to life, then we’d love to hear from you. </div> THE ROLE National Account Manager – Ahold & Meijer will be responsible for taking ownership of all Ahold banners (Stop & Shop, Food Lion, Hannaford, Giant Foods, The Giant Company) and our Meijer business, building relationships and trust with our Category Managers to help drive increased revenue growth and profitability, while collaborating with the broader OLIPOP team.
