Sales Trainee

Red Bull•Victorville, CA

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, serving customers safely, productively, and professionally in compliance 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 comes first. A certified ST must interview for an available ASM or other qualified role. If promotion does not occur before the 12-month completion period expires, the assignment ends unless an exception applies. A manager may extend the period by an additional six months for continued high performance when no roles are open and certification is complete. The position is at will, meaning either the Company or the ST may end the employment relationship at any time, with or without cause.
