Job Description
Oliver McCrum Wines & Spirits is a distinguished importer specializing in Italian wines and artisan spirits. Based in a dynamic and culturally rich industry, the company is dedicated to bringing authentic, family-owned Italian wineries and craft producers to the forefront of the U.S. market. Oliver McCrum Wines & Spirits has built a reputation for its commitment to regional identity, quality craftsmanship, and long-term relationships with both suppliers and customers. Their carefully curated portfolio celebrates the diverse taste and tradition of Italy's wine and spirits regions, making them a unique leader in the import business. The company is rapidly growing and expanding its footprint in the San Diego market, one of California's most vibrant hubs for hospitality and culinary excellence.
The Sales Representative role at Oliver McCrum Wines & Spirits is an exciting opportunity for a passionate, self-motivated individual to join a company that values authentic salesmanship, hospitality, and deep product knowledge. This position focuses on managing and expanding the company's presence across San Diego County by cultivating relationships with both on-premise and off-premise accounts. The ideal candidate will act as the face of the company locally, fostering brand awareness and driving revenue through strategic sales initiatives. This role requires a hands-on approach, including conducting in-person sales calls and tastings, organizing educational events, and ensuring all customer interactions and orders are efficiently managed through the company's CRM system.
The Sales Representative will play an essential role in not only meeting but exceeding sales goals while upholding the company's values around quality and authenticity. Compensation for this full-time role ranges from $62,000 to $68,000 annually, with annual salary reviews and the possibility of performance-based bonuses. Beyond competitive pay, the company offers a comprehensive benefits package that includes health insurance, flexible paid time off, and a 401K retirement savings plan. This role is based in San Diego, and candidates must either reside locally or be willing to relocate, as remote work is not an option. Those with existing relationships within the San Diego hospitality and retail communities are strongly preferred.
Overall, this position is well-suited for individuals who have a passion for Italian wines and spirits and who thrive in a dynamic, relationship-driven sales environment. The role demands organized self-starters with excellent communication skills who can independently manage their territory while embracing the company’s mission of quality, hospitality, and thoughtful salesmanship. Joining Oliver McCrum Wines & Spirits means becoming part of a dedicated team committed to enhancing appreciation for Italy's finest family-owned wineries and artisan spirit producers in one of the most exciting beverage markets in the U.S.
