Boston Area Wine Representative (Wine Jobs: Sales & Marketing)

  MATCHVINO

  Jamaica Plain, Massachusetts

Matchvino began in 2008 as a focused portfolio importing the wines of smaller fine Italian producers to over 20 distributors across the USA. As we have grown, so have the reputations of the wineries we represent. Our producers, mostly making wine on a smaller scale, are minimally sustainable, highly respected winemakers whose wines are true; wines with a soul, that capture the lands where they are grown. Wines that make us smile and we are proud to represent. In Boston, we opened distribution in 2015 and our reputation for having some of the highest quality Italian wines has expanded, as did our need for a sales rep. 

We are seeking a creative, well-organized professional with strong sales ability and excellent verbal communication, as well as, presentation skills. This position is full-time, though could be a good fit for an evening restaurant personal looking to make a change. This position requires an entrepreneurial spirit and strong personal motivation to succeed in the highly competitive Boston market. You should be ambitious and a driven team player. You should be comfortable working independently, and thrive in situations that require outside-the-box thinking. As important as all of this, you should have a passion for wine and for the smaller growers. 

THE CANDIDATE SHOULD HAVE EITHER: 
- At least 2 years of having worked for a fine wine distributor, and come with strong existing contacts and a proven track record of generating sales and successfully growing client relationships. 
OR...
- At least 3 years of having worked in fine wine restaurants or retail.

ADDITIONAL REQUIREMENTS:
-Home Internet access and smart phone
