DOPS, Inc., a family-owned & operated wine, beer, and spirits distributor is looking for full-time Sales Representatives for Washington, DC & Western Maryland. We’re looking for people who love to sell and have a passion for craft beer, great wine and boutique spirits.
As a small company each of the DOPS Sales Staff is expected to wear a variety of hats, allowing her or him to gain experience in many areas of the industry. With our small and growing operation, you’ll be getting in on the ground floor – but with over 30 years of company experience as a foundation. Sales representatives are expected to hit the street selling to both on and off premise accounts, marketing your products, putting on events, and attending weekly company tasting and supplier meetings. This position will afford you the independence of an entrepreneur, giving you the personal and professional experience of building a business in your sales territory. You will also be expected to be a team player and help the management team achieve company sales goals.
Our chosen candidates will be responsible for promoting high value products from all over the world: we have 130+ wine brands in our portfolio which focus on quality and value; we have one of the best craft beer portfolios in the area, with over 75 craft breweries represented. The best perk of the job is getting to be a part of and taste from some of the most established wineries & breweries in the world.
The open positions are filling established territories. Both territories are in need of someone to jump right in and hit the ground running.
We offer competitive salary with eventual conversion to commission (when territory generates more commission than salary). We offer monetary support for cell phone and car use. We offer medical and dental insurance and a 401K plan with generous matching funds.
The potential sales representative should have some of these qualifications:
College graduate
Retail, restaurant or wholesale wine, beer or spirit experience
Marketing & Sales background
A passion for craft beers, wine and spirits
Team player
Reliable transportation
Technologically proficient
Outgoing personality
We will hire recent college graduates if you have the positive qualities we are looking for.
