Job Overview
We are seeking a motivated and relationship-focused Account Manager to manage and support our existing B2B wholesale customers.
This role combines account management, customer service, sales, and day-to-day order support. You will be responsible for maintaining strong relationships with assigned customers, understanding their business needs, supporting their daily account requirements, and actively introducing new products, promotions, and sales opportunities.
This is not only a customer service role. We are looking for someone who can take ownership of customer accounts, build long-term relationships, and proactively identify opportunities to increase customer engagement and sales.
Previous experience in B2B sales, account management, wholesale, distribution, or territory sales is highly preferred.

- Proactively introduce and promote new products, promotions, and product launches
- Identify upselling and cross-selling opportunities within existing customer accounts

- Assist with defective product claims and RMA requests
- Follow up on outstanding payments when required
- Work closely with warehouse, accounting, and internal teams to resolve customer issues
- Maintain accurate customer notes, account information, and follow-up records

- Strong customer relationship management and communication skills
- Ability to build trust and maintain long-term business relationships
- Comfortable actively promoting products and identifying sales opportunities

What We Are Looking For We are looking for someone who sees customer accounts as more than just orders and service requests.
A strong Account Manager should understand their customers, stay in regular contact, recognize sales opportunities, introduce new products confidently, and make sure customers receive consistent and reliable support.
The right candidate will be proactive rather than reactive. Instead of only responding when a customer reaches out, you should be comfortable checking in with customers, following up on opportunities, recommending relevant products, and strengthening the overall business relationship.
At the same time, this role still requires strong attention to detail and follow-through. Account Managers are expected to support customers throughout the full process, including ordering, shipping, payment follow-up, RMA requests, and after-sales service.
Pay: From $54,000.00 per year
Work Location: In person
