At Spindrift Brewing we are committed to quality and consistency and brew Nova Scotia's most approachable beer - the beer our customers want, crafted the way it should be.

It's that simple.

Based in Dartmouth, NS with a satellite location in Antigonish, NS we are one of the fastest growing breweries in the province, driven by the increasing popularity of our line of Toller Lagers and Spindrift core and seasonal releases.

Reporting to the General Manager, our Sales Manager will be responsible for growing our business in Nova Scotia and beyond.

They will manage our relationship with NSLC, private stores and on-premise licensees in HRM and steer our relationship with our partner reps at Atlantic Spirits and Wines in Rural NS, NB, PEI, and NL ensuring seamless coverage of Atlantic Canada.

Additional responsibilities will include:

Working with GM on general strategy and presentations to category management;
Promoting new products and increasing distribution opportunities;
Building marketing plans, ensuring adherence to brand standards and developing merchandising materials;
Developing relationships with key representatives within NSLC Corporate and private stores;
Conducting sales calls for higher volume customers and managing ASWL sales amongst agency channels;

Generating events, activities and promotions to drive brand awareness, community engagement and sales;

A successful Sales Manager must understand the beverage alcohol business in NS, be organized and driven with a passion for craft beer, our industry, and its culture.

They must love working with our team as well as working with external customers and connecting with the people and communities that we service.
