Come join a growing brand that’s rewriting the story of olive oil

Independent Sales Representative (Part-Time Contract)

About Wildly Virgin

Wildly Virgin crafts premium, small-batch olive oils from the wild lands of Portugal. We partner with artisan producers to bring authentic extra virgin olive oils to notable wine and cheese shops across the U.S. We’re currently in ~12 specialty retailers and ready to expand rapidly.

The Role

We’re looking for a self-motivated, food-loving Independent Sales Representative to grow our retail footprint nationwide. This is a flexible, part-time contractor role (10–15 hours/week) focused on finding and closing new boutique retail accounts. It’s a great entry point for a student or early-career seller to get hands-on experience with an emerging brand. You’ll work directly with the founders and get a front-row seat to a CPG startup establishing a retail presence.

If you’re comfortable picking up the phone, telling a great story, and introducing shops to a product they’ll be proud to carry, we want to talk.

What You’ll Do

• Prospect smart: Research and qualify boutique retail leads using our CRM and prospecting tools.
• Run outreach: Build and execute automated email sequences; make daily outbound calls and follow-ups.
• Pitch & close: Share the Wildly Virgin story, handle objections, and secure purchase orders.
• Track the funnel: Log activities and results in our sales tools; report weekly on pipeline and wins.
• Feedback loop: Share market and buyer insights to refine targeting and messaging.

Compensation

• $25/hour (10–15 hours per week)
• 12% commission on the first PO from each new account
• 5% residual commission on reorders in the first year
• High performers can transition into a full-time role

Why You’ll Love This Role

• Fully remote & flexible hours (~10–15 hrs/week)
• Be part of a passionate, growing premium food brand
• Help shape our national retail expansion
