Wholesale Sales & Trade Marketing Manager in US
Join Steamery as a key US commercial hire, driving wholesale growth, building strong retail partnerships, and shaping our brand presence across North America in a high-impact role.
About Steamery
Steamery’s vision is to be the global leader within clothing care by giving people the very best tools to love and care for their clothes. We make minimalistic and easy-to-use products such as steamers, fabric shavers, and laundry detergents to help and inspire people to care for their garments. We are present in more than 60 markets globally. In November 2023, we took the next strategic step by founding our fully owned US subsidiary, Steamery US Inc. After becoming operational in April 2024, the business has quickly gained momentum and the US market is now one of our key growth markets for the company.
We are now building the next chapter of our North American business. As one of the first commercial hires in the US, you will play a pivotal role in owning and accelerating wholesale growth, developing key retail partnerships, and shaping how Steamery shows up in the US and Canadian markets.
About the position
As the US Wholesale & Trade Marketing Manager, you will take a proactive role in driving, developing, and executing our wholesale and trade marketing strategy in mainly US and Canada. Working closely with the Head of Wholesale & Distribution and our HQ, you will oversee performance across key partners, identify new growth opportunities, and ensure strong brand activation across all retail channels. Your work will support both immediate sales goals and the long-term strategic growth of the market.
This is an exciting opportunity to join a fast-growing international company and take ownership of end-to-end commercial performance and market insights — with a strong focus on driving growth and strengthening our presence across US.
Your main responsibilities will include (but are not limited to):
· Own full commercial responsibility for the US market, with a primary focus on building a strong and scalable wholesale and retail customer base that drives recurring revenue and long-term growth.
· Define and execute the US wholesale and retail strategy, including identifying, onboarding, and developing high-quality retail partners with strong sell-through and repeat potential.
· Develop hospitality partnerships as a complementary growth channel, prioritizing opportunities that strengthen brand presence, product trial, and long-term commercial value.
· Lead the US sales agent strategy end-to-end, ensuring agents are aligned with Steamery’s retail-first growth priorities and deliver sustainable commercial results.
· Own trade marketing as a core driver of retail performance, ensuring in-store programs, activation, and merchandising support sell-through, repeat orders, and partner loyalty.
· Track and evaluate commercial performance with a long-term lens, balancing short-term sales with indicators such as repeat orders, partner quality, and retail performance.
We believe that you have:
· 5–8 years of experience in wholesale, retail sales, or commercial roles, with a proven track record of building and scaling retail partnerships that drive recurring revenue.
· Hands-on experience working in a remote, field-based, or multi-market role, with the ability to operate independently without daily in-person support or a local office.
· Strong understanding of the US retail landscape, including experience opening, developing, and growing accounts across multiple cities or regions.
· Demonstrated ability to manage your own time, priorities, and travel schedule, balancing frequent market visits with structured follow-up and collaboration across time zones.
· Experience working closely with global or cross-border teams, comfortable with asynchronous communication and decision-making.
· A builder mindset, with the resilience and adaptability to thrive in an early-stage market setup where structure, processes, and playbooks are still evolving.
· Commercial confidence and execution strength, including negotiation, deal structuring, and in-store performance optimization.
· Based in a major US metro area with strong retail relevance (e.g. New York or similar), with the flexibility and willingness to travel extensively across the US.
