About this role
HelloFresh's Retail Media team has built a distinctive business connecting national CPG brands with millions of consumers through product sampling, recipe integration, and sponsored meal kit experiences. As an Account Executive in this Chicago-based role, you'd own the full sales cycle—prospecting new brand and agency clients, understanding their marketing objectives, designing integrated solutions, and growing existing accounts. The position requires someone with 5–7 years of proven sales success in CPG, shopper marketing, or digital trade marketing who can operate as a strategic partner rather than a transactional seller.
The day-to-day involves managing territory growth, building relationships with national brands and their agencies, and using generative AI tools to sharpen your prospecting and sales processes. You'll need strong communication skills, emotional intelligence, and the ability to thrive in a fast-paced environment where priorities shift. Travel is expected, and this is an in-office role in Chicago.
HelloFresh offers competitive compensation ($101,430–$124,200 depending on location), immediate 401k matching, comprehensive health coverage with zero-cost options available on day one, generous PTO including sabbatical and up to 16 weeks parental leave, and tuition reimbursement after two years. You'll also receive a substantial discount on HelloFresh meal plans and access to employee resource groups.
