Sobre este puesto de Director of Sales - Whole Foods Market en Sietefoods
Come join our familia as Director of Sales – Whole Foods Market. We're looking for a genuine leader who feels the pulse of the Natural Channel landscape and has a knack for knowing exactly what key partners like Whole Foods and UNFI need. You know the job isn’t just about hitting targets. It’s also about building and fostering deep trust and inspiring everyone around you to drive sustainable growth. We believe that Juntos es Mejor (together is better), and that means that you’re always up for collaboration and throwing in whenever someone needs help and support. You thrive in a fast-paced environment with a resilient and adaptable spirit. If this sounds like the kind of journey you want to go on with us, we’d love to hear from you.
About You:
You’ve got almost psychic powers at predicting what Natural Channel retailers want and need. Building trust with the folks at Whole Foods and UNFI is basically second-nature.
You believe deep in your bones that there’s no “I” in team (okay…so there is an “I” in “chip”...and “tortilla”…and “cookie.” Dang. That’s a common vowel. But the whole team thing is still totally valid). The point is that no matter how big you dream, no matter how lofty your goals, you’re always ready and eager to get in and help the team with all the stuff, large and small.
For selling and storytelling, you know that Juntos es Mejor (together is better).
You inspire brokers, distributors, and internal teams to new heights of accountability and alignment.
You’re adaptable as a Swiss Army Knife and cool as a cucumber when things are moving fast and evolving quickly.
What You Will Do:
Directly manage Whole Foods Market and UNFI relationships to achieve revenue targets, distribution goals, trade spend guidelines, and long-term strategic growth objectives
Develop and execute customer-specific annual business plans that drive sales, market share growth, velocity improvements, and omni-channel excellence across all Siete categories

Lead broker management efforts including annual goal setting, accountability, tracking, and performance management
Analyze retailer, distributor, syndicated, and internal data to identify opportunities and inform strategic recommendations
Represent Siete in retailer meetings, innovation reviews, distributor events, industry conferences, and trade shows
