The Role:

• You'll work through warm prospect lists (customers who haven't purchased in the last 6 months), initiating contact, following up consistently, and converting opportunities through persistence and strong relationship-building.

• Sell across a wide range of feed products (moist, straights, blends, performance products and liquids).

• Collaborate with internal teams and pass opportunities to field specialists where needed.

• Professional and self-motivated — you thrive on prospecting and follow-up.
• Effective communicator with the ability to build trust over time.
• Commercially aware and detail-focused.
• Agriculture knowledge.

What's most important is your motivation, grit, and commitment to keep working — even when conversions take time.
