Careers with Local Line

Mid Market Account Executive

Description

About Local Line
Local Line is the leading farm-to-fork platform for restaurants, grocery stores, and distributors across North America. Our platform acts as a local food sourcing network, enabling wholesale food buyers to discover and buy from thousands of family farms. We believe we can create a better food system by shortening our global food supply chain and empowering family farms to become more successful and remain independent.
 
We’re a customer obsessed team of ~25 and growing quickly. We have a clear vision for the future and a roadmap to execute on, and we’re looking for teammates who want to improve our food system by helping retailers buy direct from farms.
