Is This Role For You?
- You've managed P&Ls or owned key retail/OEM partnerships in a B2B context-you know how to navigate multi-stakeholder complexity and sell internally
- You're analytically sharp: you can build financial models, track KPIs obsessively, and make data-driven decisions under ambiguity
- You thrive in variety: strategy one day, tactical execution and event planning the next; you don't need a narrow lane
- You're ambitious but grounded: you want to grow revenue and profitability, but you'll also roll up your sleeves on customer experience and in-store merchandising to get there
- You have 7+ years in management consulting, ops, or account management; retail or manufacturer experience is a plus
- You need hands-off autonomy or a narrow, specialized scope-this role demands constant collaboration and context-switching
- You're allergic to travel or need full remote work; on-site in Chicago + regular retail partner site visits is non-negotiable
- You lack B2B partnership or account management experience; pure B2C or transactional sales backgrounds may struggle with the complexity here
- You're risk-averse or prefer stable, predictable environments; this is scrappy, high-growth, and entrepreneurial
