Eberlestock is a premium outdoor and tactical brand built on purpose, performance, and trust. Founded by an Olympic biathlete and driven by real‑world experience, our products are designed to perform when it matters most — in the backcountry, in the field, and everywhere reliability is non‑negotiable.
We’re building more than gear. We’re building a legacy brand that values craftsmanship, accountability, and people who take pride in doing things the right way. Our team is made up of individuals who care deeply about the work, challenge each other to be better, and understand that great products come from great people.
Core Values

Key Responsibilities
Strategic Leadership
Define and execute the company’s wholesale sales strategy aligned with long‑term growth goals, brand positioning, and profitability targets.
Implement a national retail strategy including sales enablement, training programs, visual merchandising standards, regional and store‑level leadership partnerships, and in‑field support and execution.
Lead forecasting, pipeline management, and sales pacing across all channels, ensuring operational readiness and cross‑functional accountability.
Build and manage a high‑performance team with clear KPIs, structured reporting, and a culture of ownership and transparency.
Partner with the Data team to build reliable sales dashboards and quarterly forecasting models that improve planning accuracy.

Oversee national and regional retail relationships, ensuring strong alignment, collaboration, and joint business planning.
Prioritize expansion within existing accounts, driving deeper category penetration, curated and strategic SKU offering, and enhancing in‑store brand presence.

Build account tiering and segmentation frameworks that align resources and attention with revenue potential and strategic value.
Monitor sell‑through velocity, inventory health, and margin contribution to guide promotional and production planning.

Leverage DTC and eCommerce performance data to inform B2B sales strategy, forecast accuracy, and account prioritization.

Collaborate with the B2B Marketing Manager to ensure creation and delivery of impactful sales tools, presentations, and collateral.
Lead and mentor a growing team including Account Managers, Sales Coordinator, and B2B Marketing Manager.
Build a unified sales culture focused on performance, collaboration, and continuous improvement.
