What are the responsibilities and job description for the Business Development Specialist - Nantucket Crisps position at Nosh.com?
Objectives
We grew up on Nantucket’s beaches, fueled by sun, surf, and, most importantly, chips! Those carefree days inspired Nantucket Crisps. In summertime, every corner of the island offers locals and visitors something special ... whether it be an epic view, good surf, the perfect beach BBQ or a quiet respite surrounded by nature. Our Nantucket summers are what memories are made of, and we wanted to share them with the world!
Made Better
Made in small batches using non-GMO potatoes, and thoughtfully sourced seasonings, our crisps are kosher, gluten-free, and unapologetically addictive. Every variety nods to bold New England flavors, while our packaging captures the character and color of the island.
