About The Position

The Sales Trainee (ST) is a training role designed to prepare the employee for an Account Sales Manager (ASM) position. The role supports sales initiatives and provides route coverage for ASMs during vacations, sickness, injuries, or special projects. The ST works with management to maintain customer relationships across sales, merchandising, and operations for large- and small-format off-premise stores, serving customers safely, productively, and professionally in accordance with Red Bull executional standards. After successful participation in the training program and certification, the ST is eligible to interview for open ASM roles. If no ASM or other qualified role is available and the ST meets performance standards, the employee may remain in the ST role for up to 12 months or until a qualified role becomes available, whichever occurs first. A certified ST must interview when an ASM or other qualified role becomes available. If promotion does not occur before the 12-month period expires, the assignment ends unless a manager extends it by up to six additional months based on continued high performance, completion of certification, and no open roles. The role is at-will, and either the Company or the ST may terminate the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause. The ST learns about Red Bull, its distribution company, brand, and products; helps protect the brand through proper product rotation and brand flow; builds professional customer relationships; prepares tools and materials for daily plans; communicates priorities with ASMs and DSMs; trains with ASMs; covers routes as needed; and supports audits, blitzes, displays, and merchandising. Performance is measured against sales, distribution, pricing, display, new-account, and merchandising KPIs, as well as Winning vs Competition and Perfect Store Audit measures.
