At Drekker, we don't just sell beer. We create experiences, build communities, and obsess over delivering products people get excited about. We're looking for a Field Sales Manager who can bring that energy into the market, develop strong distributor partnerships, grow account placements, and help expand the Drekker brand one market at a time.

As a Field Sales Manager, you will be responsible for driving sales growth and execution throughout your assigned territory.

As a Field Sales Manager, your role is to ensure retailers, distributors, and consumers experience the full magic of the Drekker brand through every interaction.

Create excitement wherever Drekker shows up. Whether you're conducting distributor work-withs, presenting to buyers, executing displays, or supporting festivals, every interaction should reinforce the creativity, authenticity, and quality that define Drekker.

Build trusted relationships with distributor teams, retail buyers, chain decision-makers, and consumers. Be responsive, dependable, knowledgeable, and proactive in helping our partners grow the Drekker brand.

Leave every market stronger than you found it. Accounts should view Drekker as a brewery that supports its partners, follows through on commitments, and consistently delivers exciting products and exceptional service.
