Requirements

• 3+ years of experience in sales management, preferably in e-commerce or retail
• Proven track record of meeting or exceeding sales targets

• Experience with CRM tools (e.g., HubSpot, Klaviyo, Shopify etc) and online sales platforms
• Excellent problem-solving, and data analysis skills
• Interest in fitness, wellness, or active lifestyles (we speak the language of reps, PRs, and recovery!)
