Full-Time Inside Account Manager • Uncapped Commission – Established Territory

Nelson-Jameson, Inc. – Posted by Tasha Domres Chicago, Illinois, United States

Job Description

Nelson-Jameson was awarded 2021 Firm of the Year by the Marshfield Area Chamber of Commerce and Industry for economic and community impact, and excellence in operations!

Not many employers can claim they play a key role in keeping America’s food supply safe. Since 1947, Nelson-Jameson has been a trusted supply chain partner of the nation’s top dairy and food manufacturers.

While most industrial suppliers simply deliver products — Nelson-Jameson delivers solutions. Through our comprehensive product offering and expertly curated food safety programs, we help lower our customers’ transaction costs while providing the products and services they need to produce safe, quality food.

If you’re an experienced Inside Sales professional with the following career goals, you should consider joining our team:

  • To have primary account responsibility for an established book of business (You won’t be supporting an outside sales rep)
  • To work in a growth industry (Growing population = growing demand for food)
  • To be employed by a private, 4th-generation family business (Company strategy is guided by our committed ownership and Midwestern values, not corporate earnings reports)
  • To be a recognized contributor (Be a Big Fish in a Small Pond)
  • To work at a high-tech office in a historic loft building overlooking the Chicago River (Office Photos: https://photos.app.goo.gl/fAcvjNbXId9yRKSy2 )
