About the Role

The Off-Premise Activation Manager owns the development and execution of account-specific activation across key retail partners, translating Pressed’s off-premise strategy into clear, scalable, and execution-ready programs across natural, grocery, club, and mass channels. This is a retail activation role at its core — responsible for how the Pressed brand shows up at shelf, in-store, and in key retailer moments. The role ensures all activation is grounded in brand strategy while delivering strong commercial execution at the account level.

Working in close partnership with the Senior Director, Sales, and Marketing, this role brings structure, clarity, and consistency to how Pressed shows up across retail environments. Success requires a proactive, solution-oriented mindset — anticipating needs, identifying gaps, and driving clear, actionable solutions that improve in-market performance.

Success in this role means Pressed shows up consistently and effectively at shelf, in-store, and in key retailer moments — with activation that is owned, intentional, and tailored to each account. The result is measurable improvement in trial, placement, and velocity, and trade events that are executed efficiently and aligned to commercial priorities.

• Develop clear execution guidance for in-store placement, displays, and activation aligned to retailer standards.
• Create scalable toolkits that enable consistent, high-quality execution across accounts.
• Anticipate gaps in tools or clarity and resolve them ahead of execution.

• Partner closely with the Senior Director, Sales, and Marketing to ensure brand strategy and channel priorities translate effectively at the account level.
• Serve as a key connective partner across Marketing and Sales, aligning campaigns, seasonal moments, and innovation launches to retailer activation.
• Collaborate with Sales, Innovation, and Supply Chain to ensure account readiness for promotions, resets, and new product launches.
• Identify misalignment between brand intent and execution and drive solutions to close gaps quickly and effectively.

Execution Standards & Performance

• Define and maintain in-store execution standards across accounts (placement, displays, brand presence).
• Monitor execution and proactively address inconsistencies in how the brand shows up in-store.
• Track and report on activation performance, including placement, promotional lift, and velocity trends.
• Translate insights into actionable recommendations that improve future performance.
