About The Position

The Sales Trainee (ST) is a training role designed to prepare the employee for an Account Sales Manager (ASM) position. The ST supports sales initiatives and provides route coverage for ASMs during vacation, sickness, injury, or special projects as needed. The role works with management to maintain customer relationships across sales, merchandising, and operations for large- and small-format off-premise stores, while servicing customers safely, productively, professionally, and in compliance with Red Bull executional standards. The ST participates in a training program and, upon successful participation and certification, is eligible to interview for open ASM roles. If no ASM or other qualified role is available after program completion and the ST meets performance standards, the employee may remain in the ST role for up to 12 months or until a qualified role is available, whichever comes first. A certified ST must interview when an ASM or other qualified position becomes available. If promotion does not occur before the 12-month period expires, the assignment ends unless an exception applies. A manager may extend the period by up to six months based on continued high performance, completion of certification, and the absence of open roles. The role is at-will. The position involves learning Red Bull and Red Bull Distribution Company’s brand and products; maintaining product freshness and brand standards; preparing for daily sales activities; communicating priorities with ASMs and DSMs; training with ASMs; covering routes; meeting sales and merchandising KPIs; and supporting off-route sales activities. Travel is listed as 0–10. The position is permanent and benefits eligible.
