Skip To Job Description Available Position (Company name withheld) Senior Sales Manager (On-Premise Hospitality) Remote Full Time Senior Manager/Supervisor Share About the RoleZBiotics is hiring its first dedicated hospitality leader to build our on-premise channel from the ground up.We’ve seen strong early proof that hospitality — bars, restaurants, hotels, nightlife groups, and tastemaker venues — can become both a meaningful revenue channel and one of our most powerful brand engines. Pre-Alcohol belongs in the places and moments people plan their nights around. The right accounts don’t just drive volume; they create credibility, cultural relevance, and awareness that compounds across every other channel.We’re not trying to be everywhere. We’re trying to show up in the places that matter. With early wins in marquee accounts, we’ve validated the opportunity. Now we’re ready to scale it with dedicated ownership.You’ll own the channel number from day one: building the pipeline, closing priority accounts, securing menu placements, earning buy-in from operators and staff, managing reorders, and expanding successful accounts into multi-location opportunities. The role starts hands-on in the field, personally landing the accounts that set the standard, then building the ambassador network and playbook to scale across priority markets.This is a rare chance to build a channel, not just manage one. It’s for someone who is energized by building, trusted in premium hospitality environments, and knows how to turn great relationships into real account growth.About ZBioticsAt ZBiotics, we make genetically engineered probiotics that improve daily life.
