About the Role We’re hiring a Key Account Manager to own high-value on-premise accounts across San Francisco and East Bay. This is a full-time role with benefits that runs in our fractional-style model—you’ll manage a tight book of priority accounts, act like an in-house brand rep for a focused craft portfolio, and be measured on depth and pull-through rather than mileage or call quotas.

Protect pricing and stay compliant with California ABC rules

Direct access to ownership—no layers of distributor management
Fast visibility for results
