ACCOUNT MANAGER / SALES — INDEPENDENT FOODSERVICE

You’ll represent the #1 premium deli brand in America to every restaurant, deli, and
caterer in the Hudson Valley. And the harder you work, the more you earn.

Dutchess Provisions is an authorized Boar’s Head licensed purveyor serving the Hudson
Valley for over 40 years. We’re hiring an Account Manager to own and grow our independent
foodservice business — restaurants, delis, caterers, specialty markets, and more across a
five-county territory.

This is a 50/50 role. Half your time managing and growing existing accounts. Half your time
hunting for new business. One day a week in the office for research, planning, and strategy.
You run your own territory, build your own relationships, and get paid for the growth you
create.

menus using our products • Cost analysis — show accounts the per-serving value of
premium vs. commodity • Brand standards — POS materials, signage, merchandising at
every account • Issue resolution — credits, shorts, delivery timing — handled quickly and
personally
New Business: • Prospect new accounts across the territory — cold calls, drop-ins,
referrals, networking • Product presentations and tastings — let the product sell itself •
Onboard new wins and make sure the first delivery is flawless • Build a pipeline and report
weekly on activity and results
Office Day: • Research new prospects, prep cost analyses and menu ideas • CRM updates,
pipeline tracking, competitive intel • Weekly territory report to ownership

• You run your own territory with real autonomy • Small company, direct access to
