Job Description:

Commercial Sales & Marketing Lead
VintEdge Winery / Napa Jack
Napa, California •  On-site with travel •  Full-time

About the opportunity
VintEdge is a 110,000-square-foot custom crush winery, storage and fulfillment center in Napa, California – Napa Valley’s one stop shop for premium winemaking and distribution. Napa Jack is its affiliated premium wine brand. Together they represent something rare in the wine business: a fully-equipped production company and an established brand — backed by committed ownership with a track record of building and scaling hundreds of successful enterprises, and determined to win in wine.
We are hiring a strategic-minded Commercial Sales & Marketing Lead to own and grow the commercial engine across both businesses. This is a builder's role with real assets already in place: a celebrated winemaker, finished wine, and a one-of-a-kind production and fulfillment facility.

What you'll own
•  Napa Jack brand sales & marketing — nationwide direct-to-consumer, wine club (to be developed), wholesale, and on-premise.
•  VintEdge custom crush business development — booking production capacity and building a multi year client pipeline of winemakers and brand owners.
•  New brand launch and development — you will shape brand identity, channel strategy, and go-to-market for new brands.
•  The full marketing stack — brand, digital and e-commerce, social, trade marketing, and events.

What you bring
•  8+ years of wine industry sales and/or marketing leadership.
•  A proven track record closing premium wine ($50–$200+ per bottle) in both direct-to-consumer and wholesale channels.
•  Experience building or scaling a wine club from the ground up.
•  Experience creating and scaling wine brands from inception.
•  Custom crush or production-services business development experience (strong plus).
•  Comfort operating across multiple affiliated entities and reading the financials behind your commercial decisions.
•  A self-starter who is energized by building, not maintaining.

What we offer
•  Base salary of $135,000–$185,000, commensurate with experience, plus a performance bonus.
•  Comprehensive benefits.
•  The opportunity to build and lead the commercial side of a winery and brand that have the assets, the winemaking, and the ownership commitment to succeed.
